At first I thought that this was a problem with the jit.pwindow and jit.gl.asyncread as I was using these two objects together when I first saw this glitch. however now I am thinking that it might be a problem with rendering open GL to an off screen pwindow. I have put together a test patch based on the 3d model tutorial patch substituting a jit.pwindow for the jit.window. In this patch when I scroll through the patcher so the pwindow is off screen my entire computer freezes and I get severe screen glitches.

Is anyone else able to reproduce this???

it seems to me that when used in combo with jit.gl.asyncread scrolling is what triggers the glitch most often and when its just a jit.pwindow resizing the pwindow is what triggers it (mostly resizing smaller)

Update:

Are you using max 5.1.5 by any chance? It appears that the jit.gl.asyncread has a problem in this version!! As if things weren't hard enough eh !?? The forum advice seems to be to download 5.1.4 and extract the object you need and copy it into 5.1.5 folder. It seems this was supposed to be getting fixed a cupla months ago but I don't know whether this has happened or not. If you do a forum search here on the asyncread you'll find more details..

actually Glitch....I have just tried your patch on my machine and it works just fine. I loaded all the diff obj in quick succession whilst resizing the window and no problems!!!???? Maybe you need to update your version of Max or summit! ?

BTW I'm fairly much a newbie at this so don't come back with any hard questions - you'll be speaking to the wrong guy!

Actually I'm running max 5.1.6 which reported a fix for jit.gl.asyncread. Iv tried a clean install several times with no luck. I guess I'll rescan my screen while reproducing this so people can see what im talking about.
