HUD blinking when clicking mouse

Postby Winter » Sat Oct 11, 2014 10:06 am

Hi guys!
Bought a macbook pro so I had to switch to Poker Tracker 4 from Holdem Manager 2. Downloaded the trial yesterday and played some poker before buying and I have a very irritating problem with the HUD. It blinks / flicker every time I click on the poker table with the mouse... It is very frustrating so I'd like to know if there is any way to fix this bugg before paying 100 bucks for this software. Anyone experience the same problem?

There is a slight delay because when you click on the table the Hud has to be redrawn, but it shouldn't be enough of a delay to be significant. What version is your Macbook? (An old one with lower specs could have a more noticeable delay.)

It is the latest Macbook Pro with 16gb RAM, 256GB SDD hard drive and Quad core processor so specs can't be the problem... The blink of the delay is really significant and annoying. Isn't there anything I can do to fix this?

I believe the delay is 150ms - does it look longer than that for you?

Possible, but is this problem for everyone using PT4 on mac? Hud flickering EVERY TIME you click on the poker table? This is a major bug that should be fixed right? :shock:

The Hud has always behaved the same on Mac and we've only had it mentioned occasionally. Due to the way that OSX works we can't have the Hud refresh automatically immediately that the table comes in front of it, and we have to find a balance between making the Hud refresh faster while not spending so much time checking for it that it slows everything else down.
