Grey box when selecting 3D solids

When I select a solid I am constantly getting some sort of selecting shadow/extent or something that's quite obscuring; I have attached a picture. 
 
I tried disabling hardware acceleration with no avail. 
 
Is there's any way to turn this off. I am using the default conceptual visual style in version 2017. When using a 2D wireframe style at an angle it looks like selecting grouped objects but if you switch to an orthographic view that grey box reappear like with all the other style.

FYI, I deleted the two solids I used in the picture. Just use any other solids in the file or create one anywhere. It seems it's particularly prevalent for the polysolid command to behave like this.

- use EXPORTTOAUTOCAD command.

- open the new created CAD file.

Tried that with a blank file with just a single polysolid and it's still like that.

I have not heard back in a while. Would really like to know just what is going on with this grey fill. Thanks.

Hi, 

 

There is no error per se; it's just that when I draw a polysolid like the one I attached here there is that gray underlay at its bottom when selecting the solid, while if I use existing lines with the polysolid tool the resulting solid has no obscuring gray underlay. I don't think this is normal but can't figure out what's causing this--is this perhaps a bug in 2017? This happens seemingly with all of the default visual style except 2D wireframe. 

 

I've tried ExportToAutoCAD and turning off hardware acceleration but those didn't fix anything.
