Selection box not appearing

Good morning, 

 

Recently I have been getting the following issue more and more often. I have been using AutoCAD 2018 for MacBook for a long time but over the past few weeks it happens that I cannot see the selection box. 

AutoCAD works perfectly and I am completely able to work on it normally, almost. When having to select something, the cursor works and the selected objects do get highlighted but I cannot see the limits of the selection box and it is actually quite irritating.

It is worth mentioning that this happens exclusively at the moment the software is started -- never after a while.

When this happens, I need to restart the computer. It usually starts working okay after that but it is already lost time. 

Would you happen to know what could this be? 

Is it a glitch of the software? 

 

Screenshot - as you can see, the selected objects are highlighted but the limits of the selection box are not visible.Screenshot - as you can see, the selected objects are highlighted but the limits of the selection box are not visible.
