Hi,

I'm modelling stuff (via photo reference) for a client and I'm stumbling into an irritating problem which has never happened to me before. The photo reference image that's been loaded as a background (via Shift >V) goes completely white after while. See example:

It's driving me nuts.. Any ideas what could be causing this?
Input highly appreciated..

Cheers / Alex

I think I had this problem before and I solved it by switching to Software Shading mode I think. Go to Edit>Preferences (CTRL+E) and choose Viewport from the left and switch to Software Shading and try it. Or if it's at ss, change it to Open GL.

Thanks xfon,
I'll try that.

Unfortunately no luck. The problem remains regardless of Software or OpenGL settings within the preferences. Didn't happen before upgrading to 9.6...
Very odd..
