I have an issue that may be by design, user error, or configuration. in the Key editor, when I set my left or right locator positions where I am working, it covers the actual measures and measure numbers. See the attached screen shot (I set the left locator between measure 10 and 11 - past that, you cannot see the measures). If I am working in a large area, it makes it impossible for me to see what measure I am on. Can this behavior be changed? This has occurred in 9.5, 9.5.1 and 9.5.2 Pro ![](https://i.imgur.com/ngpEo0C.jpg) ---

No issues here, I can always clearly see the bar numbers no matter what I do. Make sure that your GPU drivers are updated. BTW, your signature doesn’t mention which OS you’re using. ---

Windows 10 1709. Fully updated drivers on everything. ---

FWIW, this also happens on my Cubase Elements 9.5 that I run on my Microsoft Surface. ---

I think this is a prefs corruption in the colors setup. If you select a different color scheme from the User Interface-color schemes prefs page does it fix that? What I did to fix various color scheme probs was to just restore a recent backup of my Cubase prefs folder (using Windows File History, Apple Time Machine can do the same of course.) I can’t find a way to reproduce it though. ---

Just tried to change color schemes. Unfortunately, it did not fix the issue. ---

In that case, I would bet the prefs are corrupted. So try a [Cubase Safe Start](https://www.google.com/search?q=Cubase+Safe+Start&oq=Cubase+Safe+Start&aqs=chrome..69i57j0.303j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8). ---

Thank you for your suggestion. I did try blow the preferences away, but the problem still remains. ☹ It must be graphics driver related. My Surface is fully up to date, but let me try the Intel version of the graphics driver, instead of the Gigabyte version. ---

Update - I went directly to the Intel site and downloaded the latest Graphics driver for the video - still no joy. ☹ ---

I just opened a ticket via chat with Steinberg. I showed him a picture and a quick video, and he thought the issue was odd. Gave me an immediate ticket. Coming from Sonar, that is good support.
