Hopefully a tech person at Draftsight will see this.

This is my second post in 3 days, first was posted with heading "Polyline fills in viewport / paperspace".

Having further problems with Draftsight 2015, purchased a Professional license in 2014, downloaded new version '2015' when it became available, encountering problems recently.

Could this be a result of recent Microsoft updates to Windows 8.1, Microsoft .NET Framework, etc.

Draftsight installed on: Desktop workstation, Windows 8.1x64, AMD FX9370, 8 core @ 4.4 GHz, water cooled CPU, 32 GB Ram, Sapphire Radeon R9 280 w/ 3GB Ram, all drivers up to date.

As indicated on my post 3 days ago, polyline fills don't display or print (read that post).

New information, Draftsight running slow with zoom and pan, sluggish.

Now, when using 'Simple Text', type one line note and cursor disappears from graphic window every time, discovered that if I minimize the graphic window then enlarge it, cursor comes back. Also same problem if I edit a text note, complete my text edit, cursor disappears.

As a test, opened the same drawing in another CAD program, NanoCad 6.0 x64, everything is okay!

There are problems with this version of Draftsight, graphic system, especially with Windows 8.1 x64.

Found a previous version of Draftsight that I saved and installed Version V1R4.0, everything works fine now.

Draftsight 2015 is a step BACKWARD, and I even purchased a Professional license.

Frustrating!
