SoapUI GUI repaint issues

Anyone else having similar GUI repaint issues similar to what's noted in this thread:

 

https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-NG/screen-refresh-issue-in-GUI/td-p/10026

 

I've attempted to enable & disable the native ui (no effect) and add the java param to the .vmoptions file (no effect).

 

I'm thinking it's related to the installed jre since I have been using 5.2.0 for a while without issue. I haven't used SoapUI in a few months, so it's likely java has been updated since then.

 

I noticed the issue on that version today. I upgraded to 5.2.1 and see the same issue.

    Have the same issue with both 5.1.2 and Ready! API 1.9.0

    Using Windows 7 x64, tried with Java 8u111 and 8u77

    Need a solution ASAP

      No updates from my side. still dealing with it even today. on version 5.3.0, but as you can see from the screenshot, the UI is still a mess.

        tried to switch the java_home to see if using x86 vs x64 worked. jre 1.7 vs 1.8; but nothing seems to bypass this terrible UI issue. completely makes the app unusable :(

         

        I'd even pay for a soap license if I knew there was any chance of this being fixed in a paid version.

    rsulliv1, if you follow the link mentioned,
    adding below seemed helped the poster of the question:

    set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dsoapui.jxbrowser.disable="true"

      Adding that property (added to .bat & .vmoptions files both and tried each separately as well) had no effect.

       

      Also, it seemed stable if I used my secondary monitor, but that's no longer the case. it seems that switching monitors merely forced a repaint, but didn't actually affect the overall issue. If I use the app for longer than a min or two on either monitor, the screen goes to hell.

       

      Not sure what's going on.
