Temporary dead pixel in Photoshop CS5
Hello,
I got some strange bug.
There is a white dot appearing on my screen right after I open any file or preferences window.
The dot turn grey if I drag something white under it.
The dot shows itself only when the PS app is active.
Even if I just click on my desktop wallpaper "through" PS making it inactive - the dot disappears.
Activating PS back - returns the dot.
I figured out that it happens when PS switches from integrated to discrete GPU.
Some more strange behavior:
- If I force to use only integrated GPU before starting PS there is no dot
- If I force to use only discrete GPU before starting PS there is no dot
- If I use dual monitor configuration before starting PS there is no dot
- If I unplug second monitor during PS session the dot appears
- If I plug second monitor during PS session the dot doesn't dissapear
- If I reset or delete preferences in PS folder it switches to discrete GPU on launch and there is no dot. But after closing and restarting PS with preferences saved it starts with integrated GPU and switches to discrete on opening file or preferences. And the dot appears.
Tried to ask Adobe Support and Adobe Community. No solution.
Any idea on what's going on and why is it started only now?
No changes to PS preferences or to system were made.
It appeared just during one of PS sessions.
Thanks.
