Hi,

I am getting this wierd pixelisation of my work screen in Photoshop 5 on a Macbook Pro Running 10.7.3 - has anyone got any solutions? It seemed to only start happening when I upgraded to Lion.

It only happens when I am moving stuff.

Thanks Robin

First thing to try is to make sure you have the latest video drivers.

Robin, it might be helpful if you'd tell us what we're looking at...

Is it a screen grab from an image you're working on at lower than 100% zoom?

It only happens when I am moving stuff.
If you're talking about the resampling for zoomed displays being different when moving document windows around (vs. when they're stationary and you're doing edits), that's because OpenGL drawing is temporarily turned off for the display of the image while you're moving its window around.

Zoom rendering is different (smoother, higher quality) in OpenGL than non-OpenGL operation.

Just to clarify, this is a 100% zoom screen grab. The image pixelates as i move any objects on their layer - sometimes not always. It effects the window like electrical interference.
