2015 AutoCAD Electrical running on bootcamp macbook pro retina display issue

I've tried switching the resolutions on both my NVIDIA control panel and windows 8 control panel as well as scaling settings and nothing seems to change

this is what my application constantly looks like,  is there anything I can do to change this?  it is incredably frustrating to work like this

Hello Rogelio,

 

Thanks for reporting this. We came across this issue once and it is extemly rare case. This is actually reproducible in Vanilla AutoCAD as well in different dialog boxes which have dropdowns and truncations are visible clearly. We will see if any workaround to resolve this issue.

You might try disabling graphics hardware acceleration inside of AutoCAD Electrical. If it's on turn it off. If it's off try enabling it.

 

My screen flickers with AutoCAD Electrical 2015 when hardware acceleration is enabled.  I had no problem with versions 2012-2014 on the same computer, so something has changed.

We came to some conclusion on this case. It appears that application shown weird UI due to the screen resolution setting is set as "Display option as "Larger (150%)" (DPI settings)

 

If you keep it to default then this issue will go away. Let me know if it works for you.
