    Has anyone seen 2018.3 "bleeding" over onto a 2nd monitor?

    I've been noticing this with 2018.3 both at work and on my home machine. I like to run Revit on the left screen, and when maximized it will sometimes "bleed" over by 10 or 20 pixels onto the left edge of my right screen. Clicking the middle "Restore Down" button and then the Maximize button again fixes it, for awhile. Then later it will happen again. It's a minor annoyance I guess, but it is indeed an annoyance especially when the Revit window covers up the edge of content on my right screen whenever the Revit window is in focus.

    Yes, same thing here! I've also noticed that sometimes the QATB disappear as soon as I change my Revit from the screen in the middle to the screen to the right (I have 3 one usually for Revit, the Second One to ACAD and third one to RFO LOL), I've noticed for example that if I move revit to the 3rd screen the QATB returns to its right place!, but once Revit is in the middle screen I should put the QATB at the bottom, otherwise it will rest blocked, my first though was the drivers to my GeForce GTX 1080 but once I made the update I've noticed that this still happening so no clue what can be the problem! :banghead:

      Yeah I don't know about the GFX drivers. My work and home machines each have different video cards, although both of them are nVIDIA GeForce GTX-based cards.

          This may be a whole separate issue, but we've been seeing a lot of users getting trails left on the screen when dragging the Project Browser or Properties dialog.
          Autodesk is blaming it on the Windows 10 Fall Creator's Update
          Users reported that since the Windows 10x64 Fall creator update (build 1709) was installed, Revit dialog boxes leave trails when moved across the screen. The Properties palette and Project browser appear to stutter or flicker when moved. The behavior is visible on the following video

          No fix for 2018, they do say it's fixed in 2019

            Also, if i have the revit window maximised i sm not able to click and drag the window by the title bar. I have to double click the title bar to make the window minimise then drag it. This happens only in Revit 2018, all other programs work ok.

                I would stab myself in the eye of I had to use windows 7 still. Been 3 years since I've been on win7. The win10 upgrades are a pain in the ass, but otherwise windows 10 is fantastic.

                    Yeah. The later updates- which are actually fully replacing the operating system behind the scenes, instead.of.apllying patches- are a mega pain.

                    Factor in the SMB3 issues, and the fact that Autodesk hasn't updated their start menu deployment methodology since win7, and win10 can really be a big pain.

                    But... Every now and then I go to a client's office still on win7, and it's so brutal. I count the minutes til I can go back to my own machine. Hahaha.
