[PD] Fwd: Mac Retina display - graphics glitching?

[Philip Stone]

forgot to include the Pd-list on my reply:


I’ve only seen it on my (very complex) performance setup, which I can’t very well use as a test case. I will try to find a simpler example, though it’s possible that my complex performance patches are stressing the graphics somehow.

If I can do that with a (vanilla, I assume) simple patch, I’ll try your demo build.

Thanks, Dan.

Can you compare the same patch with my demo build of Pd 0.46 with retina screen support: Pd-0.46-0-64bit-retina.app.zip<http://docs.danomatika.com/Pd-0.46-0-64bit-retina.app.zip>

Subject: [PD] Mac Retina display - graphics glitching?


Upon getting a new 13” Retina Macbook, I have started to notice glitching in the PD UI. I thought this might signal a need to upgrade to Pd-extended 0.43.4, so I did, but this did not fix the glitching. Usually, the glitching manifests as a flickering GUI slider, but sometimes, a whole squarish section of the screen flickers briefly.

It’s not disabling, but it’s very distracting to see the screen flashing out of the corner of my eye.

Configuration:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
Pd Version: 0.43.4-extended
Tcl Version: 8.5.11

I haven’t searched the bugs list yet; I’m just wondering if anybody else has noticed this?
