Hi all

I have a Mac Studio M1 Max and a Mac Mini M1. For some reason, even when opening with Rosseta, the GPU is not recognised on both machines. Is this just me?

Hi @Lewis Tsalis I'm using PD2700U - they have to be HiDPI versions. I have a 24" BenQ at home that also does not register, but I don't use it for ID/PS work. My 27" shows as the GPU monitor.

Hi, I had a similar problem.

My InDesign screen blink everytime I try to select a text. It was terrifying, every moment blinks in white and donn't know where text mark is...

At first, ID didn't recognixe my Monitor and says not detected. Changing the resolution on my computer 347 times (joking), it sayd DETECTED AND COMPATIBLE GPU. But still I couldnt's ativate the GPU performance.

My MAC OS version is SONOMA 14.0 and InDesign version 19.0

I contact Adobe support and they told me nowadays these both versions are not 100% compatibles and they are working to fix it.

In InDesign 18.4 version also it didn't work, so I insist on it. I was chating with an specialist and he told me to DEACTIVATE THE RULES. VIEW/RULES.

IT WORKED. Amazing.

It's not a final solution but we can work while they fix the problem.

I hope it works for you'll.

@Blanca26001448ytge turning off the rulers has always been an old school solution to the first-click screen blink. That has nothing to do with GPU though.

It's your monitor not your GPU. We had the same issue with a lesser model monitor and after upgrading to a BenQ it works now.

Hey Kevin. Which BenQ monitor are you using? My pair of BenQ SW240 monitors seem to not be supported. Cheers.
