Yes, display is broken, ie garbled, shifted, and jagged, with Antialiasing ON, and when selecting, AND any floating tool bar is overlaying the model screen area. A key fact to take note of is that everything works fine when I move or close any tool bars so that they don't overlay the model screen area!!!!

I've reviewed many of the prior threads regarding this problem and I haven't seen any mention of undesirable interaction with the tool bars overlaying the screen and Antialiasing. I think that Google SU ought to take a serious look at this rather than repeat the same old response that it is the video card or driver vendor that can't quite be 100% compliant with OpenGL 1.5 or greater. Other than boilerplate statements like that, I don't see any compelling evidence that makes Google SU the sole expert on OpenGL compliance. I'm running an nVidia 8600GT with the latest 163.71 drivers. SU is the only OpenGL application I run that shows such obvious problems. If my video card or drivers were at fault, I doubt that my display would work fine when the model screen area is clear of toolbars. There are now enough OpenGL apps to motivate nVidia (or ATI) to be compliant. I remember back when @Last used to recommend nVidia over ATI for OpenGL compliance.
