El Capitan iMac (late 2009) Major Graphics Issues
A lot of software is having issues on my late 2009 iMac, which seems to related to graphics drivers, possibly the new Metal 'improvements':
El Capitan 10.11.1 (15B42)
2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
Some are just visually glitchy (Google Chrome with strange flashing bars and artifacts) and Steam games (with broken textures, odd transparency, etc), while others are majorly crippled in their use. Modo, a professional 3D design software does not function well enough to use. Trying to manipulate models is impossible with the new upgrade. In Adobe Illustrator, the R-click menu is gone with the upgrade (at least not when using an additional extended screen) Restarting, shutting down, reinstalling software, etc. have not worked.
Please fix this issue, Apple! I've contacted the other software companies and at least Modo is unable to fix this from their end.
