display issue upon file open

[nelalvai]

I'm on Civil 3D 2022. When I open a file, the display has this black space between the ribbon and the actual display space. It's as if there's a second viewport but there's definitely not, I checked. This happens in modelspace and layoutspace. I can't close the dead space, I can't interact with it, and the palettes in it (toolspace, properties) are frozen.  It doesn't happen *every* time I open a file, but it happens with most files. Rebooting it usually fixes the issue. Sometimes I have to reboot a second time. Is there a more permanent fix for this?

Try using the GRAPHICSCONFIG command and change the 2D Display settings from Advanced to Intermediate or even Basic.  If that doesn't help try some of the options AT THE LINK HERE

I changed to Intermediate and that fixed it. Thank you!
