AlanM04 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Hi, please refer to attached screenshot. Does anyone know what that icon is that's started appearing in the bottom right corners? It doesn't actually do anything and isn't clickable, just annoying me. Thanks Edited August 7, 2023 by AlanM04 image change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Welcome to the forums @AlanM04 That icon is not part of Publisher. It’s probably there via some kind of screen recording application, or something similar.Edit: It’s possible that it could be something to do with a graphics driver, I’m not sure. Have you updated/installed anything else recently? I think I’ve seen it before but can’t remember what it’s part of (someone else may know); it’s definitely not got anything to do with Publisher though. Edited August 7, 2023 by GarryP Added note.

AlanM04 Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 Hi Garry, thanks for your quick reply. The only thing I have is the Nvidia Geforce software but that's always been there. It's strange though, they only appear when I open a file in Publisher and only in the Publisher windows. They don't appear on anything else at all - Nothing on PS, AI, ID or even my legacy Corel Draw X5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I’m sure someone else will have a better idea of what’s causing them than I do. I’ve not had this issue myself but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it reported in these forums before. I think it might be a graphics driver thing; maybe it only comes up with Publisher because of the way the Affinity applications use the graphics cards, or something like that. Hopefully someone will come along soon who knows exactly what’s causing them and how to get rid of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM04 Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 Thanks Garry, yes I think you're on the right track. I'm updating the Geforce software (again) and will see if it makes any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Welcome to the Affinity Forums @AlanM04, I can confirm this is the Nvidia 'Instant Replay' icon, enabled through the Geforce driver. You can find out how to disable the feature, or the overlay icon here - https://www.techowns.com/disable-nvidia-overlay/ I hope this helps AlanM04 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM04 Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 Hi Dan, yep that's what it was and it's now been disabled. Thank you both for resolving so quickly! GarryP and Dan C 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
