Question

RH 10 is suddenly flickering between pagination and displaying

I am trying to work on a topic, but RH 10 is "flickering"... the lower right hand corner status (at the very bottom of the PM pane)  is flickering between "Pagination" and "Displaying".  The font and font size is flickering, and the Paragraph and Character Styles pod list is flickering from "Normal" thru the list and then back to "Normal" in a split second.  I cannot work in the topic...This seems to be happening no matter what topics I'm in... as well as if I create a new topic.

I did some PM organization of images and topics... and it was fine until then.  I have made all the updates I can find, restarted my system, uninstalled and reinstalled RH and reapplied the updates.

What the heck is going on?  HELP!

Is it behaving the same way with one of the sample projects?

Of course, one way to solve/prevent is to turn on the setting that clears the .cpd file each time you open the project (then it bakes a fresh one for you)


While that can certainly be tried, my guess is that all it would end up doing is making the problem worse as well as persistent, because the flickering occurs because of RoboHelp madly trying to update links and whatnot in the assorted databases.
