This is 3ds MAX 2017 not 2016, and I'm sorry I never used textpluse.

I tried reproducing this and I can get similar glitches on my iMac with the AMD 6970M running 3ds Max 2017 through Boot Camp.

 

A few questions:

 

-When does this most often occur? For me it seems to happen when I start clicking on different Textplus objects.

 

-For me the glitches go away if I change the Viewport driver to “Nitrous Direct3D 9”. Try the same change. If it remains, work your way down the list to see if any setting has any impact

-Can you provide a system information file? I’ll log this one with development after I gather more info

Hi Ben, thank you for taking an interest in this issue. When I click on one of the textplus meshes, that's when the problem occures. It disappears, sometimes, when I zoom in/out in the viewport, or when I click on an individual mesh other than the one I want to work with. But not always. My Pc: Windows 10 ver. 1511 build 10586.420 Intel i-5-4570 3.20 ghz 12 gigs of ram I will try Nitrous D3D9 to see if that works. If you'd like, I can forward the .max file to you Thank you again for your help
