Revit 2024 - Mouse pointer jumping around

Hi,

As the title says the mouse pointer is jumping around like crazy. This happens when drawing (for example, a filled region or drawing an extrusion).

 

I have opened the project on a colleagues Revit 2024 and they do not have the issue.

If I go into snap settings and turn everything off it does stop picking a hundred points, but obviously this is not useful for drawing precisely.

I first restarted my PC, then uninstalled and reinstalled Revit from Autodesk and neither fixed my issue.

Any help appreciated.

I would check if you can edit the mouse settings as sometimes this allows additional software functionality for applications directly.

Try the Microsoft Mouse Settings or if applicable the Mouse Software.  (I have a Logitech mouse which allows changes per application)

 

Also try turning off hardware acceleration in the Revit > File > Options

Thanks for the quick reply.
Seems changing the hardware acceleration setting does nothing.

What sort of additional mouse functionality should I be wary of? I have not changed anything on it at all, there's no per application settings set up. Mouse driver up to date too.
Cheers.

Sometimes there is an advanced menu that allows you to personalise mouse action per application rather than for all of Windows.

it does looks more graphical related hence the hardware acceleration option I would also check graphics card updates
