GtkRadiant and Windows 7 x64

Post by neoplan »

Hi!

I get a bug under Win7: Everytime I press "shift" button, 4 black (sometimes gray) boxes appear. After pressing another button or moving around - they disappear.
Does somebody have a solution for that or similar experience?

Here is a picture

What GPU? Update video drivers?

Set GtkRadiant compatibility mode?

GPU: ATI Radeon HD3870 Single
Driver: ATI Catalyst 9.1 (22.10.2009) Win7 x64 drivers.

Using Compatibility mode WinXp did not solve the problem.

Try disable desktop composition.

You might like to mention your GTKradiant version... I'm guessing 1.4 or 1.5?

It might be a good idea to put a FAQ post together named GTKradiant under Vista / Windows 7 that collects all the issues and their resolution (if available).
