Image glitch in editor

Hey all,

I have an issue where adding a new object or changing its image can result in the image getting squashed into a small portion of the object in the editor. It still displays correctly in game, but it prevents me from building a level at all.

Here is an image of the problem. I get it quite frequently now, for both sprites and tiled backgrounds.

I will try to make a bug report later, but it will require me stripping down my project and will take some time. So for now, does anyone have any solution for this?

It could be a driver problem. Are your graphics card drivers up to date? Is it the same on other systems?

Don't quite understand here...your image is hard to interpret without context. Don't think I've ever had this problem.

If striping down your project is too much work, maybe you could try a video?

Do you have another install of construct, like a sandbox version, you could try?

Does it happen all the time, or randomly?

Have you tried a new, test project, or is it just your project?

Hope someone who knows more can chime in.

Cheers, T

I got this standard when my sprites are bigger then 2048x2048

Ashley - I looks like it might be my drivers. I got someone else to try out a few examples of glitchy editor stuff, and in all cases it worked fine for them. Problem is, it seems I can't update my drivers.

When I install a new C2 version it comes up with the 'check for driver updates', which I do, and it says they should be okay. Then even when I search and try to install them, it locks up when trying to detect my drivers, and when I search for the driver specifically it says it doesn't exist past windows 7. So...what to do? I am currently still on a place holder PC that is really junky, but not sure when I can get my old one back. So does this mean I'm stuck with these problems for the time being? I've found it's actually having a lot of different issues too (squashed images, blurry images and tilemaps going completely barmy)

Tobye - which OS are you using and what card do you have? Try identifying your card and manually locating the right driver instead of auto-detecting. Or, last resort, go for a reinstall of Windows, and update the drivers as soon as it's set up.

Ashley - I'm using windows 8 and my driver is: Intel(R) G41 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1), which had the following note under it: An Intel device was detected but your operating system is not supported by this utility. Please visit Download Center to look for available software.

So I searched for a new one and found this: downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx

Downloaded it, but my computer does not match the minimum requirements. So, I'm somewhat out of my depth. I've been trying for a while to get something working but no luck no matter which way I turn.
