Spellbind Posted August 6, 2021 Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) I noticed this after upgrading to Publisher 1.9, but the problem is also present with the most recently released 1.10. When hovering over UI elements, sometimes they disappear until I hover back over them a few times. For example, here's a quick recording of the menu bar. You can see two of them have disappeared, but hovering over them will bring them back to being visible: This also happens with other parts of the UI, but this is a quick and easy example to demonstrate. I did try reinstalling, but the problem persisted. My GPU drivers are up-to-date, and I use an Nvidia 1070 graphics card. AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core CPU, with 32GB of RAM. Thanks for your help and insight. Edited August 6, 2021 by Spellbind MrBulBul 1 Quote
walt.farrell Posted August 7, 2021 Posted August 7, 2021 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Please review the list of third-party software that is known to cause problems: In particular, a number of users have recently reported issues with the Nahimic software (MSI Nahimic in that list) so I would start by looking for that on your system.

Spellbind Posted August 8, 2021 Author Posted August 8, 2021 Thanks for your help! It was connected to Nahimic - I have an Asus motherboard and was using the Sonic Radar and Sonic Studio software. I never found it particularly useful, so uninstalling it wasn't a hard decision to make. This resolved all my UI issues. The Nahimic service itself doesn't seem very easy to fully remove sadly - it's a sad state when your motherboard seems to force this kind of software on you. walt.farrell 1 Quote
Spellbind Posted August 12, 2021 Author Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) For anyone else that finds themselves in the same situation as me, and wants to keep the Nahimic software around for one reason or other - you can also search for a file called BlackApps.dat within C:\ProgramData\A-Volute\*\Modules\ScheduledModules\Configurator. I added Publisher.exe to the list, and it stopped injecting into the process and causing the UI issues. I'm still trying to find a decent balance between having the latest Realtek drivers from Asus and avoiding all the Nahimic stuff that comes with that.

Dell Alienware is running this stuff and adding the names of the executables in \ProgramData\A-Volute\DellInc.AlienwareSoundCenter\Modules\ScheduledModules\Configurator\BlackApps.dat works like a charm for me.
