Q: 13" MBP, something is not right with the screen, when scrolling on any page, the displaying thing starts to drift

13" MBP, something is not right with the screen, when scrolling on any page, the displaying thing starts to drift, this didint happen before

 

I bought the 13" MBP a few months ago and something is not right with the screen, when scrolling on any page, the displaying thing starts to drift, this didint happen before, thats not normal, doesnt happen with other MBPs.

its very annoying, here is the link to the video http://youtu.be/jXXgmg8z8aU

I did with all the programmes that I have on this mac, sketchup, autocad, blender, chrome, safari, folders.. the results were same..

This also happened before I updated from 10.10.2 to 10.10.4.

It happens sometimes only..

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

    Hello suvansh,

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    As I see from your post and video, you are concerned about the scrolling momentum you receive when quickly scrolling through pages on your Mac. This is perfectly normal, as you can see explained below.

     

    • Magic Trackpad – Two finger swipe in the direction you want to move your content.  For example, a two finger swipe up will make your content move up. Two finger swipe left will make your content move to the left. Tip: Flick your fingers at the end of the swipe to generate momentum with your scroll. Note: Rubber-banding animations will spring back content to let you know that you are at the end of your content.

    You can turn this feature off however, by changing the setting to scrolling "without inertia" in your Accessibility settings.

     

    To open this pane, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, then click Mouse & Trackpad.

     

     

                      
      

    Scrolling

      
      

    Turn scrolling on or off, and control what happens when you lift your finger from the trackpad:

       

    “with inertia:” Scrolling comes to a gradual stop.

       

    “without inertia:” Scrolling stops immediately.

    Take care.

    Hey, Sorry for the late reply.

    I think you sir didnt quite get the question I'm asking.

    Let me elaborate this.

    When scrolling ona ny web page on chrome or on safari, zooming in in sketchup or in autocad, opening files in any folder on the mac, the screen distorts, like shown in the video... this never happened before with me. I asked my friends who have the mac line up machines, none of them had experienced with such problem and this is so annoying when you constantly scroll or zoom on any thing... like parallax in iPhone, It gives me head ache!    

    this appears to be a graphical problem, I have updated my OS X many times as suggested by my friends, reinstalled fresh 10.10.4 OS X, but still this happens, this happens for a time to time , its not permanent, it stopes behaving like this after a few hours...
