I am wondering if anybody else has seen the problem shown in the screenshot below ?

The darker my modeling window background, the more visible the blue streak at the bottom. Changing window size has little effect. The last few pixels at the bottom are always blue.

To find out if you have this problem make your modeling window dark gray.
If you do have the problem, please could you state what your OS is as well as the graphics card.

I have the same problem with both an ATI X1600 256MB and Intel GMA X1300 graphics. Both systems running 10.5.8.

Does changing resolution make any differes (positive or negative)? I'd be curious to know if running an instance of VC in a virtual machine on a virtual graphics device would change anything.

Nick,

Found and fixed in Shark V6. Assuming no side affects (after more testing) we will drop back into current product service packs.

Tim, does this mean that this (see pic) will also get fixed too? (When using the perspective mode).

Hi Tim,
Does this mean it will eventually be fixed in other products as well? It is happening in Viacad2d/3dV6 as well.

Yes. We're going to test it a bit more and then put it back into a service pack for ViaCAD V6 and Shark V5.

This is a mac only bug.
