I have a graphical issue with the display when zooming out.

Thx.

I have never seen that one reported. They would surely like a dxdiag file.

My guess is that it is hardware related ... maybe the monitor. GPU drivers have been updated.

It could be. If it is the monitor it should not be specific to DW, though, it ought to act up in many situations. And I doubt a monitor error would appear on the screenshot (it is not a photo of what is shown).

Is it always, or sometimes?

It is occuring only with DW and only when zooming out somewhere in the felt middle of the leveling scale. It is permanent unless you zoom below or above the error. Yet, the error is relatively new. Not sure if it existed before last patch. The error did not occur on the same hardware some weeks ago.

I can report that the issue is solved after install of a new OS.

My guess is that some drivers (chipset or video) were not fully functional.
