    Re: Drop down menus in dialog boxes appear blank and cursor doesn't echo

    We don't have either those installed on our Desktop computers.

    All 40 computers came from the same image so I don't understand why so far just 2 people have this problem and I can't resolve it. So far I think I just might have to reimage the whole machine and start from scratch because nothing else has worked, except I could delete their whole profile and recreate it.

    For me it was the team viewer. Can you post some screenshots with the problem showing? And maybe another of the list of installed programs?

    Just imagine any dialog box or pull down menu not completly showing until you move your cursor over it and it will only show it on the part where you move the mouse.

     

    I still have a remote software on there called VNC but this is needed for my to help them and this software is on 150 computers and I'm not going to unistall it. This software doesn't affect any other software and this problem is only in Civil 3D 2011 and this has never happened in previous versions.

     

    At this point I'm ready to just rebuild them a computer to solve this problem because I'm spending way to much time on this when you would think that all the other solutions I tried didn't work.

     

    Thanks for everyone's help.

    In that case you could try the civikl 3d 2012 and see if it poses the same issue. Should be a free download for you. Good Luck.

    It happens in 2012 also, but not in 2010.

    I'm having the same issue.  My dropdown menus (including layer properties) do not fully display.  Only the item my mouse is hovering over displays.  Have you had any resolution?

    it's been awhile but I think I got rid of those issues by disabling the fingerprint scanner.

    For me the problem was team viewer. Check to see if you have that or some other remeote desktop software.

    I was able to fix this problem by updating mouse software which is Microsoft Intellipoint to 8.2, it was vesion 6 something before.
