Hi there,
I if I add an object, let's say a line to the DB. And colour it with an
RGB (255, 255, 255) value. When I hold the mouse over the line,
it disappears. Move the mouse off the line and it re-appears.
Any-one know why?
Cheers,
Martin.
Hi,
what happens if you disable SELECTIONPREVIEW?

Hi.
can you upload this drawing? And what version of AutoCAD plus what background-color do you use?
- alfred -
I have my BG set to Black. After your last post I changed it to red to try it out. And it works as normal. But I need the background to be black.
Ta,
Maritn.
Hi,
>> After your last post I changed it to red to try it out
Oops, when I open your drawing the line is green (RGB = 87,189,55), do you have a problem with your monitor or gc?
Try this drawing on another workstation, just to verify!

There is no problem with his monitor.
This is a bug.
When SELECTIONPREVIEW = 1 (dash only), objects with RGB colors disappear completely.

I have set my background to black, I draw a line with true-color 255,255,255, I set the SELECTIONPREVIEW to 1 and to dashed-only-mode ==> when I move my mouse over the line it does not disappear.
And as the OP stated that he tried also to disable SELECTIONPREVIEW I don't think this is an issue based on that.
Well, I have SP1.1 installed, maybe that's a difference?

After having a closer look, It may not be a bug in AutoCAD, because it only happens here when using hardware-accelerated graphics. When I disable that, the line is drawn correctly. The system I noticed the issue with is using an ATI Radeon consumer graphics card and driver, so that's most-likely where the problem is.
I have just turned hardware accelaration off in options and your right it fixes it. Not sure how I can leave this off as CAD slows to a crawl.
Thanks loads & DOH at the same time!
