Objects remain highlighted in views after cursor has passed over them when anti-aliasing is turned on

First just to say I've been using this forum a lot and appreciate all the guidance, but this is my first post as I haven't been able to find any solutions.  I recently purchased a new laptop and downloaded a trial of Revit LT.  When I turn on anti-aliasing in a view and hover over objects, they remain highlighted from the pre-selection, so that any object I've passed over with the cursor stays blue but is not selected.  This only goes away if I then pan or orbit, and is not an issue if I don't work with the anti-aliaising, but I would like to be able to work in 3D view with this feature.  Any assistance is much appreciated, I've included a screenshot that illustrates the issue, and has a box with laptop specs.  Thanks -

I'm noticing this same issue, at least you've figured out the the root is anti-aliasing causing the problem.  I'd be interested to know why this happens though.

 

I'm on RVT LT 2022 - 22.0.2.392   -   20210224_1515(x64)

Lenovo Yoga 7 - Intel i5 2.40GHz - Win 11 - 12G Ram

I have the same issue. I've had it in both RVT LT 2022 & now 2023. Any news on how to fix this as I like to use the anti-aliasing feature.

Hi - the problem was the processor on my laptop. I bought one with higher
spec and the problem stopped. Hope that helps.

Can you  please attach a screenshot of the specs of your laptop? I too bought a new laptop specifically for CAD, it was alot of money, I would love to swap it out for one that is a bit more proficient, I would be grateful! Thank you!

 

PS  Attached is my 3d view of the anti-ailasing driving me NUTS!

What is wrong with that view?  Sorry I can't tell it clearly from the screenshot.

If it is the same problem as the OP, it was solved by replacing the processor. See message #4.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

I am experiencing the same problem. Turning off anti-aliasing fixed it though. Thanks for the solution!
