MC Interface Interactions Causing Other App To Flash/Redraw
« on: April 18, 2018, 02:54:11 pm »

Hi guys, I am seeing something a little weird that's been around for a little bit, maybe a few months? Any time I interact with the tree or the buttons of the interface in MC they are triggering a screen redraw in another program I use all day along side of of MC called Datacad. Below is a screen cap I did to show what I am seeing. It's not a big deal in this video but when I have complex drawings on screen in Datacad it can be quite a long process to re-draw the screen. Any ideas on what might be causing it and is there maybe a setting I can toggle to draw the interface using a different process? I've updated my video drivers, uninstalled all the apps that I could think of that might be interfering with the interface in someway. I am posting a similar post in Datacad's beta forum to see if they might have any ideas.  Thanks for any ideas!

Bizarre.  I suppose it's only that application that is affected. 

Are you using anything special for your desktop?  Anything that is related to drawing in Windows?

The only other program that shows a sign of this that I have seen is Autodesk's DWG TrueView 2018 app, but it is just the main logo "D" in the corner of the app that seems affected and flashes. I had some StarDock skinning apps loaded before, but I uninstalled them and rebooted a couple times before making this video. I am running Windows 10 1803 build 17133.1 as of now.

Maybe something is still left.

I'll try doing a fresh install on a spare box with just the two programs loaded and get back to ya.

I have the same issue with a tool bar, Advanced Laucher.
