Display issues in FCP X on my MBP

Hi there,
I downloaded FCP X from the App Store this week and installed it and I am having a lot of display issues. My MCP is the 13.3" model from mid 2010 and the graphics card is compatible. I have 8 GB installed, so that should be sufficient as well. The areas where I am having display issues are:
* I don't see the film strip in the event browser. I do see the listing of the files in the event browser.
* I can not see the Inspector browser. Clicking on the i icon does not do anything and does not bring up the inspector browser
* I can not see any of the effects. Clicking on any of the effects buttons does not do anything and does not bring up the effects browser
I also notice that when resizing the FCP window, it does not get repainted properly.
One last thing that is annoying, but I found a work-around for this, is the splash window shows when FCP has loaded. It does not open FCP with the same layout as I last used, in fact it is only showing the menu bar and nothing else.
I hope that someone can help me with any of these problems. I was really excited about getting started with FCP X, but this has been a downer so far....
Thanks.
Edwin

Hi,
i had the same problem when i used the 10.0 version....but i solved in three ways:
Restarting the computer;
or
Creating a new event,clic on new event and the old clips appeared like magic in the old event if you try to access it again....
or
Click and keep pressed the Event icon (the purple star); try to put it in "Machintosh HD" or any hdd you have the event. Magically the clips are again in the browser....
Try......

  • Display issue: green, flashing pixels, low resolution on my new MBP 17"

    I just bought my MacBook Pro 17" on December 2010 from Authorized Reseller in Dublin.
    After couple of days for the first time and now every 2-3 days my MBP's display goes suddenly pixleated with green, shiny pixels and all display appears like low resolution. After closing the lid and opening it again the problem disappears. During that display problem my computer has no issue with performance like: video playing, opening and closing applications, rebooting, etc. Here are some screen shots made by my photo camera during this display issue: http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/809/dsc03872j.jpg http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/6670/dsc03879x.jpg http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/7914/dsc03885z.jpg http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/3830/dsc03881g.jpg
    I should mention that I also made a screen shot with Shiftcmd3 combination of keys during this display issue and it appears, as you can see http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/8618/screenshot20110123at204.png as it should be - sharp and clear. One of my friend said that maybe I should reinstall operating system, but my guess is that it isn't software (Snow Leopard) issue. By the way, I have all the latest updates.
    Please, can you tell me what is the problem, what is causing it and what should I do?
    Thank you.

    Ok, guys, I should update my main post about screen issues on my MacBook Pro 17" 2010 model, because it was quiet a big issue. It was actually problem not with display panel (which was completely replaced and which didn't resolved that screen issue at all) but with motherboard which has been replaced (by Mactivate).
    After almost 3 months I can say that the computer had no issues since the repair: no screen issues, no noisy running vents.
    I must say I am happy with repair made by Mactivate (actually one of few repair services authorized and recommended by Apple). They arranged the pick up with their own currier with no charge, great communication and most of all - they did everything to resolve this quiet unusual issue with my display.
    I really and honestly can recommend Mactivate to anyone in Ireland.

  • Mbp c2d 17" display issues

    Hello,
    Has anyone heard of updates or fixes for the brighter bottom display issues on mbp c2d? I'm still waiting for a fix or explanation. I really want to buy one but need a better quality display.
    Thanks

    Mine is a week 48 build and the model is 9C61, manufacturer 610.
    I think it all looks very evenly illuminated to me. I ran LCDTest so I could see it with different solid colors, and it looks fine.
    This is a glossy screen, if that makes any difference.

  • MBP 13" Retina late 2012 display issue

    Hi,
    I have a problem since the upgrade to Maverick :
    This is happening :
    With the display setup configured to have more space (1680x1050 if i'm right)
    After playing a game in 1440x900 or after I connect my TV in HDMI with a replication of the screen between laptop and TV (meaning the retina screen is used in 1920x1080)
    After those action, if my MBP go to sleep mode because I don't use it, at wake up I have the display issue at the bottom.
    This appeared with maverik, I had no issue before.
    If some one have some idea ?
    My current work arround is that, after playing game or using my MBP on my TV, I change the screen scale and then the problem is not happening.

  • MBP Retina Display Issues

    Ok, so got a new MBPr this week and there are a few issues.
    1. When I plug the MBPr into a 27" imac to use as a secondary display it doesn't work
    2. When I plug in the HDMI to any other display nothing happens on the other screens, while the MBPr stays the same
    3. Has also had problems awaking from sleep
    Anyone else having display issues?

    I cant speak for other but when I get mine I will post up what I get for you.

  • Macbook Pro Early 2011 Display issue

    Hi all,
    After reading the replacement program that has been extended to MBP for 15" and 17", is there going to be any news with regards to the 13"?
    The reason why I'm asking is that while I'm not sure if mine is an isolated issue or widespread/common occurrence, I have had my logic board replaced last year due to a display issue, and currently still unable to run external display, despite reading up on discussion that is going on.
    The symptoms mirror that of the 15"/17", just that the 13" does not have a dedicated GPU.
    Hope to get more suggestions/ solutions/ news to potential replacement program from here.
    Thanks all!
    Regards,
    Ziang

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Early 2011 15 and 17-inch MacBooks Pro have had several GPU issues that causes graphic corruption, and it was an issue that showed in most MacBooks Pro. However, this does not apply to the 13-inch MacBook Pro, so I think it is just an issue that has appeared on your Mac but there is not a reason for a replacement program.

  • Permanent Crash related to changing display settings while FCP is open.

    Recently, the display settings (arrangement) on my two monitors started changing by itself while I was working in FCP 6.5. I'm using ancient monitors (Viewsonic MB90 and Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 920. I just don't have the money to upgrade right now). Tis was annoying but I dealt with the problem by creating two different windows layouts. Then things got worse (the only thing I had done was install 8 gigs of additional memory on top of the original 2). FCP started crashing and now I can't even open the application. It doesn't react.
    Apple recently posted a not very informative acknowledgement of the problem with changing display settings while FCP is open, but it doesn't suggest solutions to my problem. It would be helpful to know a) what resolution and refresh rates are best for these old monitors and b)how to open FCP again. Your help is greatly appreciated.

    THIS IS IT!
    Disabling the nVidia deep colors for 3d applications solved the uber-annoying "flicker-screen-settings-and-disrupt/crash-other-programs" issue. I specifically only disabled deep colors for Premiere, not for all 3d applications I use, because none of them have caused the same problem as Premiere.
    This display-screen setting issue probably occurred because I use a Dell u3011 monitor which displays Adobe RGB color gamut, not just sRGB.
    However, now this brings up another question with disabling deep colors (effectively disabling the Adobe RGB use of the Dell monitor):
    QUESTION: If I have CG-rendered frames that seem to be created in sRGB and Adobe RGB (in two different programs), what color space should I be mixing/editing them in?
    I'm somewhat of a novice with the color spectrum/gamut issue. From what I understand, if I edit both CG images in sRGB, I'll be losing color data from the Adobe RGB-created CG image. If I edit both CG images in Adobe RGB, will I create minor banding effects on the sRGB image because it doesn't have the color range that I'm editing in? Perhaps my question is more relevant to AfterEffects compositing of the images rather than simply/only editing them in Premiere.
    The end result is something like an architectural film/ flythrough.
    Thanks,

  • Text/graphics issues woth FCP 5

    Hello,
    I just upgraded to FCP 5.1 universal. There seems to be a serious degradation of graphics containing text when viewed on my cinema display compared to FCP 4.5. It's for an instructional DVD that at least half the people will watch on their computers (and of course not an issue viewing on my NTSC monitor). Also, why do graphics look fine in the viewer but awful in the Canvas? Is there a solution besides reverting back?
    Thanks!

    figured it out. thanks. < </div>

  • GPU/display issue?

    Hi
    I'm having a serious problem with a mid 2008 intel (alu) iMac (2.66GHz Core 2 Duo, running Mavericks). I think from my searching around that it may be a GPU issue, but could also be display.
    The mac won't boot properly, getting no further than the grey screen with apple logo. If started up normally, this screen displays a checked pattern. It goes nowhere and the only way out is to do a hard shut down.
    I can boot in safe mode though. In this mode, the mac generally seems to be functioning OK, but instead of checks I have a very fetching set of bands/stripes. They are sometimes pink and orange, but at the moment they are white and turquoise. Each band is made up of a series of eight stripes, each stripe a few pixels wide. There are 13 bands across the screen: the desktop can be seen underneath/through the bands and can also be seen normally between the bands (so I have normal bands and striped bands, each the same width, repeating across the screen). The cursor arrow attracts in own mini striped band - a square the same width as the main bands. (image upside down for some reason!).
    As I say, my googling suggests that this is probably a GPU issue (the ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro, not the apparently dodgy NVIDIA one that seems to have cursed some early 2008 imacs). What I don't get is why I can boot in safe mode but not at all otherwise - what gets disabled in safe mode that allows it to bypass what is otherwise an apparently total barrier to successful booting? When I try to boot normally and get stuck on the Apple logo, I can hear the mac working away, but is just doesn't seem able to go all the way. The really weird thing is that even when it is stuck at this stage, I can still remotely access the iMac from my MBP - I can open and copy files over the network. This suggests that it is in fact sort of booted, but just not displaying itself. I cannot screen share though. When booted in safe mode, I can screen share, and the stripes show up on the shared screen view on the MBP. Again, this suggests to me it is a GPU issue, not a display issue.
    Unfortunately, this is my old iMac whcih i have just passed on to my mother in law, who is based 250 miles from me. I am visiting for a few days and so need to either get it sorted or conclude that it's toast (seems little point in forking out for a new GPU for a near six year old machine, even if I could swap it). I don't mind taking it apart (I swapped the hard drive last year) if that woudl help identify the source of the problem.
    Any ideas much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    Hi Tammy (and anyone else who can help)
    That's good news. Things at my end have gone a little strange. I put back all the extensions one by one and was able to boot nromally, even once all of them were back. I did however get a message that the ATI 2600 extension wasn't installed properly, but as it was still booting and I couldn't see any way to reinstall it (other than just popping it back in the extensions folder) I moved on. The screen was getting a bit worse, but still just striped rather than banded.
    Having read further threads on similar problems, I decided to take the whole thing apart (great ifixit step by step guide). Nothing seemed amiss - all connections seemed secure, no obvious burnouts. Removed a LOT of dust and put everything back together again.
    The machine started straight up when I plugged the power cord back in (I didn't get a chance to press the power button) - the screen flashed briefly round the edges and then stayed black. No stripes, no bands, no image.
    I could hear the hard drive spinning, so pressed some buttons on the keyboard and got a warning tone, suggesting some sort of boot. I forced shut down and restarted and then tried to log in with the screen still blank. The bad news is that the screen has stayed black since then. The good news is I now have full remote access and can even screen share. The screen now has no bands when I screen share - I can see and interact with the full screen as normal and have managed to retrieve files etc over the network.
    I am still deciding whether to order a new (second hand) video card. Looking in system profiler to get info on this it now shows no info AT ALL under graphics/display and in the 'more info' tab from the apple menu 'about this mac' version of system info it now says "No display detected". I am now unsure whether I have somehow 'blown' the display (I still get a brief white margin round the screen on start up) or whether both graphics card and screen are both goosed, or whether I should take it apart again to make sure the display itself is properly connected. If the graphics card was fubar, would I be able to see anything at all via screen sharing? I don't have an external display I can test it with. I don't want to fork out for  GPU only to find it is the display.
    Any views on next steps?

  • Interlacing problem - display issue or something else?

    Hi, another interlacing question...
    So I captured my footage (originally shot on film, telecined to digibeta) at 10 bit uncompressed to do my online (the offline edit was a 29.97 DVCam dub of that digibeta). Since I'm finishing on 29.97 digibeta, I didn't remove the pulldown as I captured offline or online, and am editing both at my finishing medium's frame rate. So yes, I have the duped fields in there, but it also keeps things simple and I've theoretically been seeing exactly what the finished version will look like the whole time.
    Last time I did this workflow I used a G4 running a dual 867 processor with a gig of RAM, and I had some jitter and interlacing "comb" visible when I watched the 10-bit on the Mac, but when I output to digibeta and DVD, it looked fine. So it appeared to be that my computer simply didn't have the juice to display it properly, but that the media itself was fine, as were both ways of outputting.
    Now I have a spankin' new Mac Pro with a quad 2.66G processor and 3Gigs of RAM, so I figured that "display issue" was behind me. But not only do I still see jitter and comb on my computer monitor, I also see it much worse on the test DVD I just made. So the problem isn't just the display. The look is very similar to when you capture a clip and remove the pulldown, but fail to start capture on an A frame (but since this is all 29.97, I know that isn't the problem).
    I thought it might be that the drives were not fast enough, so I reformatted two of my internal drives into a Raid 0 and put the media there and reconnected it. The raid seems happy, and it's less than half full, but the video doesn't look any better.
    Any idea what else could be causing this? I did just upgrade the project from the FCP 4.5 version I started to the FCP 6 on the new machine, plus my experience has been that moving from offline DV to online can allow in some bugs, but the ins/outs, clip names, frame rates, haven't changed. And of course I've been editnig 29.97 DV this whole time without seeing any of the interlacing on the monitor or tyhe outputs. Could field dominance have anything to do with this? I've never adjusted that in previous applications of this workflow, so it doesn't seem relevant, but I confess I'm not sure what I'm messing with there. Do I need still more RAM? The computers we ran at school a couple of years ago were running 10 bit video on G5s without significant upgrades to my knowledge, and this is just a single stream with a few tracks of audio here. I'm afraid to spend any more $$ until I'm pretty confident it'll solve the problem (shoestring budget here of course). Any thoughts?
    Many thanks.
    -Jeremy

    Thanks for the reply. I don't really have a way to hook up my computer to a broadcast monitor. I know I should, but can't really afford the card to do it. So I color corrected my footage carefully during telecine, and for things like this issue, I'm making DVDs quick and dirty through iDVD, then watching them on my home TV (an LCD that plays both SD and HD).
    I suppose something in my DVD player and/or TV might be giving me the weirdness in the display, but I think I mentioned I did this same workflow before on a lowly G4, and back then while the computer display showed the interlacing problems, the final output looks fine on the same TV/DVD setup I'm using now. (And I also output that timeline on the previous project to a digibeta master and it looked great too--unfortunately no way to test that digibeta output on the present project without going to a post house, which of course cuts into the budget.)
    Maybe I need to bite the bullet and stop being so cheap, but I'm hung up on the fact that it worked fine before, and I can't see how this stronger computer is performing comparatively poorly.
    BTW I do see the interlacing in FCP viewer and canvas, but only when it's set to 100% size. And it looks identical in Quicktime as well.
    The other thought that just occurred to me is that it might be a codec issue. Perhaps the uncompressed 10 bit codec on my new machine isn't quite the same 10 bit uncompressed as the Kona card used to capture the video for both new and old projects. Maybe my old computer worked ok because that codec was slightly different, or I may have even copied the codec to that computer at some point in the past.
    Any of this spur any other ideas? Again I really appreciate the help...

  • I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well.

    I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well. However, itunes can not do anything with the phone because the phone is locked and I can not unlock the phone because the screen is black.
    >CURVEBALL!!!<
    The screen does work though! Through trial and error along side a little troubleshooting, I was able to figure out that the screen will cut on after the phone dies completely. The phone has to die completely with no battery power left. Then if I plug the phone into a charge and wait a while for it to charge, the phone will turn on like nothing was ever even wrong with it. I charge the phone up to like 30% and turn it off then bam the phone turns on but the screen is solid black again.
    I am currently in the process of waiting for the phone to die and when I turn the phone back on I am going to completely remove the auto-lock and lock code off of the phone for the time being.
    Any other suggestions? Please help!

    Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
    Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

  • Display issue on brand new 2014 X1 Carbon Touch

    So I was about to start raving about my X1C that I just received. Loving the display, the keyboard, build quality, etc. I had no gripes and was just browsing away when suddenly the screen did the full glitch. I recognize this as what happens when something's messed with the motherboard/display adapter. So I gave it a reset. All was normal and then it happened again. I was able to replicate it 3-4 times and it keeps happening. I never dropped it or anything. It was always just stationary.
    I can't believe this. I had problems with the first gen non-touch and touch. I was hoping by now they have improved.

  • Display Issues with mini (Mid 2010) and LG L246WP

    I recently purchased a new mini (Mid 2010 base model) and planned to use it with my 24" LG L246WP monitor, which is about 3 years old. The monitor has VGA, component, and HDMI inputs.
    I used an HDMI-to-HDMI cable to connect the mini directly to the monitor, and the output is completely messed up. The mini recognized the monitor (titling the System Preferences > Display dialog with 'L246WP') and set it to the monitor's native resolution of 1920x1200, but on the monitor the image is cropped to what looks like a 4:3 aspect ratio and with part of the image shifted up and left so I cannot view the top menu bar or the left hand side of the desktop. The monitor's on-screen display shows 1080p in this mode.
    The Display dialog also gives me an option for 1080p. I can select this and use the Underscan slider to resize the desktop output to fit on the screen, but it is still shifted left and must be resized smaller than the available display space (plus the total image is only 1080 pixels, not using the monitor's full native screen). In this mode, 1080p also shows on the monitor's on-screen display.
    I tried 1024x768 to see if I could get a properly-positioned image, but the desktop was shifted just like in the 1920x1200 case and the monitor's on-screen display status still reported 1080p.
    The monitor has a menu setting under an HDMI heading with "Video" and "PC" options, but changing this selection does not make a difference.
    Since the monitor came out before HDMI was as widespread as it is today, it came with a DVI-to-HDMI cable, so I also tried using that cable with the HDMI-to-DVI adapter that came with the mini, but this did not make a difference either.
    To prove it wasn't the HDMI cable, I connected the mini to my Samsung 6300 series 40" LED HDTV and with some tweaking of the Underscan slider the displayed image filled the screen perfectly.
    I've searched the Internet and various forum threads (i.e. http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1167222&page=63) seem to indicate this monitor can send a corrupted EDID that causes issues, especially with nVidia graphics drivers. On Windows you can use registry or driver hacks to override the EDID with the correct values, but on OS X this doesn't seem possible (I was hoping for a Terminal one-liner but it seems this doesn't exist). I have seen some mentions of the shareware SwitchResX (http://www.madrau.com), which looks like it gives you the option to override resolution settings, but I haven't tried this yet.
    It also appears to me that the monitor is always interpreting the signal (or the mini is always sending the signal) as 1080p, even if I've set 1920x1200 in the Display dialog. I don't know if this is a defect in the monitor where it always assumes the HDMI input is a 1080p source (previous I used it with an Xbox 360 with no issues but that was 1080p HDMI), or if is a bug in the graphics drivers (or at least a lack of flexibility / miscommunication to the user trying to handle a corrupt EDID).
    I asked my local Genius Bar for advice today (without bringing any hardware in) but was not told anything I didn't already know.
    I'm trying to determine the best way to work through this issue. *My questions are:*
    Would it make any difference if I used a Mini DisplayPort-to-DVI adapter (and then my DVI-to-HDMI cable to the monitor's HDMI input)?
    What about a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter? In the past I used a 12" Powerbook (via a mini-DVI-to-VGA adapter) with this monitor and had no display issues like this, but I'd prefer to stick with a digital connection on my brand new mini.
    Is SwitchResX the only practical way in OS X to override a corrupt EDID and force the mini to output a certain resolution?
    Besides the various adapters and SwitchResX, is there anything else I should try before buying a new monitor?

    Hello EPWilson4984.
    I have been experiencing the same issues you described. Connecting my brand new Mac Mini to my Westinghouse 24”monitor (L2410NM,  1920x1200 pixel resolution) produces a very fuzzy and washed out image quality. The Mac recognizes the monitor and applies the right resolution (1920x1200), but it looks just awful. The EDID info is definitely not right.
    Now, I tried your suggestion (DVI-to-HDMI), and similar suggestions from other threads, but nothing works. Nothing seems to work at all.
    The main input for the monitor is HDMI, so whatever cable I use, in the end always has to connect to the monitor via HDMI. I tried all these combinations with zero success:
    Mac mini -> HDMI cable -> monitor (result: fuzzy and blurry image)
    Mac mini -> displayport –HDMI adapter-> HDMI cable -> monitor (result: fuzzy and blurry image)
    Mac mini  -> displayport –DVI adapter-> DVI-to-HDMI cable -> monitor (result: it gives me a blank screen, no image at all)
    I’m running out of options. Don’t know what to do. The 24” monitor produces beautiful, crisp images when hooked to my Windows 7 PC. It looks horrible when connected to my brand new Mac Mini.
    Any alternatives you may have come across? Please let me know, thank you.

  • Repeated iMac Problems, Display Issues now Kernel Panics

    I’m lost on what’s wrong with my 2008 iMac and I think I just have to bring it back into Apple for a third time to have it repaired. But something is obviously not working that is causing these issues.
    About a month ago, my computer began showing heavy pixilation, flickering images and the on-screen graphics. The computer appeared to keep working in the background from what I could tell so I came to conclusion that it must be the graphics card that’s failing and I’ll need to have it looked at.
    My 2008 iMac was custom-built by Apple with the Nvidia GeForce 8800GS that was offered as an upgrade option. There have been several posts on the display and graphics discussion board about that graphics card along with other postings other places about the problems the Nvidia GeForce 8-series had.
    The display problems I mention above would not happen immediately, it would happen as the computer warmed up and was used for 3-5 minutes.
    Anyway I brought my computer into Apple explained to them what I believed was the problem and the Apple Store technician agreed with me. Because I did not purchase AppleCare, it cost me $400 and a week without my iMac to have that card replaced.
    I got the computer back two weeks ago and everything seemed fine. It was working as it always had. I even was running SMC Fan Control in order to keep the computer as cool as I could (the Nvidia problem was related to overheating).
    But this morning, this is what I woke up to:
    http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/7436/photoijr.jpg
    The computer now has a semi-permanent pixilation when it starts up (as suppose to the pixilation 3-5 minutes into use). But more worrisome now is I cannot start up the computer without it going into a kernel panic. I tried resetting the PRAM, I tried starting in safe mode. The only thing I haven’t tried yet is booting from an external HD which I will try this evening (to hopefully isolate it if it’s hardware or a software problem).
    The Apple Hardware Test has been unhelpful. When it originally failed three weeks ago, the test showed nothing and this morning when I ran it (permanent pixilation and all), it showed nothing. I feel like if it was a software issue the pixilation would have disappeared during the hardware test because that’s not an OS-X based program.
    Here are my specs on this computer:
    2008 iMac 24" 2.8ghz Intel Core Duo, 4 gigs of RAM (Crucial Purchased, I have original sticks somewhere), 1 TB HD, Nvidia GeForce 8800GS.

    Hi, just to update you, I came home today and did a few things that didn't seem to solve my Mac's problems:
    - I booted up from my firewire "safe" drive that I keep a copy os x on to see if I had a corrupted hard drive or something. It booted into the kernel panic I described above.
    - I also swapped out the crucial RAM for Apple's factory RAM. It also booted into the Kernel Panic.
    In both incidents, the display issues didn't go away. Now instead of pixelization i have vertical bars running in a pattern across my screen.
    I'm currently trying to boot onto the OS X CD at this point to see if I could do a reinstall. It's taking quite awhile to boot into that.
    With that in mind, I think we're still having graphics card issues or more seriously some logic board problem.

  • Bizarre & Random Dashboards Display Issues/Errors

    Hello,
    I am on BI 4.1 SP04 and these dashboards were developed using an equivalent level on the client tool. (4.1 SP04)
    Sometimes we get very strange and often random display issues with our dashboards. I have attached screen shots for examples. Sometime we are missing data points from rendering on the charts, other times a line chart will extend into a bar chart.  Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what could cause this? It is very frustrating...
    Thanks for looking,
    Gary
    Missing data points on yellow line, yet line rendering with proper data (other wise would have 0's in places, etc)
    Green line missing dot on last end point
    In this example there are no dots on the yellow line or green line
    In this example the blue line has turned into massive columns extending across the charts

    This patch should resolve the issue in the last screenshot. I still face the other issues after upgrading to SP3 Patch 4. The dots in line chart take some time to appear. Also, if we use dynamic visibility, the components taking considerable time to appear sometimes. I hope this will also be fixed in later patches. Please share your experience too after applying the patch.
