Graphical refresh problem

yes. and also with waveforms displaying from soft synths with waveform preview set to on.

Yup, not as bad as your screenshot but in other windows as well (I have this problem in track view).

I hope this one was on the bakers list for the next update.

A few things... 1) That stopped happening to me as much as soon as I installed the Quickfix (have not tried X2a yet but probably will this week). 2) I enabled the controller pane in the PRV to get the velocity lines off of the grid. The velocity lines seem to be the biggest annoyance as far as graphical glitches. Once they are gone you don't get that pile of ghost lines. 3) Do you have a dedicated video card? It doesn't have to be anything fancy (I have a Gigabyte I picked up for $20 with 1GB of RAM). It might help a bit. 4) I've seen quite a few people mentioning they had to adjust their graphic settings. Like if you have an Nvidia driven card go into the driver software and tinker with it. If you google cakewalk forums + graphics settings you might be able to find those threads. Sorry I don't remember exactly what they did. 5) Make sure you have the latest drivers for your graphics card. 6) Try increasing your audio buffers if you are just inputting data manually. 7) You could try clearing the Sonar graphics cache (or whatever it's called). Again I'm not sure how this is done but I've seen others mention it. That said the easiest way to get rid of the lines is to just make sure the velocity controllers are isolated in the controller pane. It's a lot easier to view anyway even without the graphical glitches IMO. Cheers.

I think it's a bug in the way sonar handles the vertical line/cursor while scrubbing.
Sonar does a complete redisplay of the pane when you let go of the mouse which tells me they took the easy way out.

I get the mess whether the controller pane is visible or not.

Trying this out just now, I've become permanently stuck in scrub mode. The mouse will only scrub, whether I hold the j key or not, and the mouse icon is the speaker.

Clicking outside the pane does not fix the problem. If I insert a new track and bring up the PRV for it, I'm still stuck in scrub mode for the new track.

Restarting Sonar fixed it.

X2b please.

Oh and I never use scrub. It doesn't work properly. It's all clicky/erratic if it works at all. I just set my now time to where I want and check that way.
