  • Illustrator: gray appears when editing

    Posted by Nicole Dune on October 11, 2015 at 8:30 am

    Hey there,

    I’ve been getting random gray fills whenever I edit objects. When I mouse over it, some parts of it disappears but it continues when I edit.

    I’m using Illustrator CS6 on a Windows 7. Graphics card: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2450M, 2.50 GHz
    I noticed this happened after I installed a custom Windows 7 dark theme but I don’t want to change the theme again. Anyone know what this must be? I can’t seem to find any threads about this.

    Thanks!

    -Nicole

    I would tend to think it is a Windows issue not an Illustrator issue. Or then a conflicting combination thereof. The application window is not being fully drawn. But since you know what started it, the best solution would most likely be to revert the theme to what it was before.
