Revit DPI / Graphics / Snapping Issue. Snapping is too precise, and the selection box for any elements seem fuzzy or pixelated.

I have been having this weird issue where the snapping in Revit 2022 is too precise, requiring me to keep zooming in quite a bit to be able to snap to the correct point. This is wasting a lot of time as it is requiring me to keep checking my drawings every time I draw a line or object to make sure if it is snapping to the right location. I noticed the "snap buffer area around the mouse pointer" is much less than it used to be which is requiring me to point EXACTLY or EXTREMELY NEAR a corner to be able to snap properly. It is difficult to show what I mean but I tried my best to capture it in the attached clip. Clip 1 shows the issue and Clip 2 shows what its supposed to look like. 

 

I also noticed that all the selection boxes when elements are highlighted are appearing fuzzy. I am wondering if it is a windows graphics / DPI issue or a native Revit issue. Attached image shows what the issue is, and what its supposed to look like. 

 

Note: I had this issue previously and a simple restarting of windows solved this issue. However, it seems like that method is not working anymore. 

 

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

No such issue here.  How far is you model from the Internal Origin?

The model is near the Origin. I had the same issue before with this exact same Revit file and I simply resolved the issue by restarting the application and windows. But this time, that method is not working anymore.

Maybe closing one eye will help you aim better?  😉

 

Kidding.  Seriously though, that did cross my mind when watching the first mp4.  he. he.
