Screen refreshes everytime I execute a command (4K screen?)

Hello everyone.

 

I have a new laptop, supposedly super strong, with 4K touch screen*. PC details below.

So when using autocad 2020 student version, I am constantly getting a refresh screen when I complete certain commands. It's not really a refresh, but maybe a reconfiguration of the screen interface. The bottoms toolbars and Layout tabs will change place after a command and go back to their original place.

 

This is extremely annoying because it messes up the workflow. What may be happening here? I have tried locking the toolbars but nothing changed. I left a screencast of what's happening.

 

Could it be that it's the 4K screen and there's no way around it?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Late 2019 Dell XPS 15,

Win 10 Pro, Intel Core i7-9750H, @ 2,60GHz, 32Gb RAM

1TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB GDDR5

15.6" 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) InfinityEdge Anti-Reflective Touch IPS

 

I knew 4K screens weren't the best for performance, but I got this computer, directly from Dell, for about half the price so I took it.

Hey, thank you for the answer.

It is out ot question to change resolution settings because it will mess up aspect ratios and overall look in all other apps.

Hi,

 

>> It is out ot question to change resolution settings

I never told you that this is a solution you have to use in the future.

It's just TEMPORARY SETTING to do a test to isolate the issue.
