Thanks!

Does this mean you have the same issue?

OK, great, thanks. I never really use the autorouter anyway and don't think I will need to import STEP files for this project, so this makes waiting for a new version much more comfortable for me

Great, thanks a lot! With this "Pcb_screen_debug.exe", I can't reproduce the issue anymore while it happens immediately again when I switch back to the original "pcb.exe".
I'm very happy that you took this report seriously even though you could not easily reproduce it and that you found a fix in ...

@Serg:
As stated before, it happens with Direct3D and OpenGL, it doesn't happen with a still installed v4 and I'm pretty sure it didn't happen with 5.1.
OS is Win10, CPU is a Core i7 6700K, GPU is an RTX2080. Not sure what you mean with "monitor parameters". Anyway, it's somewhat impossible that the ...

Cross selection is disabled. Never used that. The Schematic tool was never open when it happened anyway. I'm in "Default Mode" when it happens. As I said, I think it has to to with automatic highlighting of nets/components when moving the mouse over them.
I haven't found an option to disable this ...

I tried to disable "walk around" but this didn't fix it. Would have been weird anyway since I'm not even routing at this point. It happens when moving the mouse over traces and they are automatically highlighted.

I tried the last v4 version and can't reproduce it there. But with 5.2.0.2 it always ...

It looks like we an not reproduce it anywhere already.


Sounded like you did:


We were able to reproduce this several times (no exact sequence) on one of our PCs (very outdated), but all others work without issues. We will try to find the reason and fix it.



Did it appear in 5.2?

It didn ...

When I minimize the application screen and maximize it again and then move the mouse pointer from the lower border into the working area, it happens almost all the time.
In OpenGL mode it's easier to reproduce - maybe because it's the fastest mode. It also happen in D3D-mode though.
What is also ...

5.2.0.2 has a tendency of showing only a blank screen in the PCB Layout tool even though a design was shown before.
Sometimes it happens when moving the cursor into the working area after bringing the application to the foreground again.
But it's somewhat problematic to reliably reproduce. Still, it ...
