Strange things happening

Post by tutuur »

I recently started having a strange problem with MLV.

When i open mlv the menu option buttoms and the logging selection buttons text are almost not readable, when i glance over with the mouse they become readable but others change.

I'll make a video and upload to youtube later as the problem is a bit hard to explain.

Regards,
Arthur

Java runtime version: 1.8.0_05

i've just re-installed mlv and opened it directly after setup, worked fine after that.
then i read your message and opened it again to check your suggestion and the problem is back again....

i have the latest 32 ánd 64 bit java installed....

1.8 is a beta JRE, I wonder if that is related.
Perhaps try installing a 1.7 JRE
