As for the artifact issue - I finally figured it out. It is reproducible, and does not happen on my second system (work machine has external monitor via displayport)
Open finder, make sure tab bar is visible (view - show tab bar) Now drag the finder window, but do it from the tab bar. On my other mac, this creates a new finder window from that tab. On a display link machine (either the laptop display, or external) it creates these weird artifacts and no finder window. Basically you are dragging and dropping a tab on the desktop - this moves the whole finder to a new spot on a DL machine. On a non-DL machine you get 2 windows. My guess is that I may be able to turn off animations and see real finder windows - there is no way to interact or move these artifacts, so i am not sure if they are real or not. The image is a 4" square area - so each artifact is about 1" square. EDIT - relaunching finder deletes these artifacts. |

I did some more research and others have reported the finder bug. It does NOT appear to be display link related. One user claimed creating a new account on the same machine solved the issue, so it seems to be user profile related more then machine related.
Sorry for what appears to be a false alarm. Google search on "drag Finder tab bug" will give some youtube vids as well. |

It's all useful information for our testers in case they find the same, thank you for doing the research for us and the other forum users as well! We'll open a bug about the corruption. Having a picture of the failure to show around is a big help for this kind of products. Cheers, Carlo |
