   ... huh. That's a new one.

   Not an SSP issue, I think... my computer has been behaving strangely as of late.

     If I drag the window around, all the text flickers and jitters... bizarre.

     I think it's about time for a restart. Reloading file explorer didn't fix it this time...

     Might as well capture it for posterity.

     Also, I am not sure how apparent it is, because maybe this menu displays differently in different environments. But this is the wrong font, or something else strange is going on with the font like a lack of antialiasing.

     @Zichqec The flickering of the window display used to be a common issue with older PCs that had lower processing capabilities.

     SSP dialog uses an old rendering mechanism that has been carried over from that era for technical reasons, so it is technically possible for flickering to occur for some reason.

     However, it is unlikely that the same issue would occur with the performance of the PCs currently in operation, so there is a high possibility that there is some anomaly or compatibility issue with the Windows graphics driver.

     @ponapalt I *did* just have to reinstall/upgrade my video driver the other day, due to it failing... hmm.

     A lot of very strange stuff was going on, like my taskbar repeatedly showing a corrupted display. I didn't capture it, but the first thing that alerted me to the problem was when I opened the ghost explorer and it came up as a plain white square with the only feature being the bar at the top to move/close it.

     It's definitely an issue on my computer and not SSP, I just don't know what's causing it. I think maybe I'll make backups of my important files, and wait to see if it happens again...
