GUI problem

First, take a look at this:

The video is a bit jumpy but you get the idea.
It's only 4,1 M in size and my server is fast.
An avi file would have been 32 M

Ok, so this is an ongoing problem, since when?
Think....What have you changed since it last worked as expected? There must be something unexplained or missing from the 'plot' & only you can fill us in on that one Paul.

here are the pertinent ATI settings:

I tried OpenGL in this last window but it did not change anything.

Thank guys

This problem has been going on for some time now, Shroomz. I didn't change anything since I installed my All-in-Wonder card. Maybe the problem started when I installed it, I can't remember...

Try optimizing your system.

It could be all sorts of things

Please! I've been here long enough to have done that already.

I'll check again tomorrow. Thanks

I had kind of the same when I updated to fusion 4.0. I worked out turning scope platform screen mode (set/settings, global tab), to 'classic'...

Your video looks a bit like what occurs in Win98 after a while with large projects in Scope.

This is strange it's not suppost to happen using WinXP.

If you shut down other applications does Scope screen redraws return to normal? (as tends to occur in Win98).

I'd try running memcheck and perhaps even temporarily using a different graphics card (to see if its main system ram or the video card ram).

How much Ram is on that ATi card Paul?

The texture preference & mipmap detail level are set to 'high quality' somewhere on one of the pages you didn't post a picture of. I'd go thru all those graphics settings switching off & turning down quality levels etc of graphcs card functions such as those 2 & any others which you deem you would only need for games or 3D graphics work. Save your optimised settings as a profile & reboot the system.

I changed my Graphic card setting to "OpenGL".

No weirdness so far today.
