I got this message from a customer on Friday after upgrading to v17 Windows:
"I’d say the program isn’t as smooth as it was before – kind of refreshing
the screen a lot/going blank for a second and re-appearing. When I drag and
drop items the whole list goes blank and I just guess where to drag and
drop them to in the list."


I'm not sure about exactly which Windows version and what configuration,
but it is definitely 64-bit and I've compiled it for 64-bit.   I'm doing a
screenshare with her later today to investigate. ​My guess is she needs
more memory ... if anybody has any suggestions, please speak up!
It doesn't behave that way for me of course :)
