In my first use of 2018 I tried to edit a block in the block editor and the geometry was invisible. Select All lists the objects as being there, but they don't show. If I run CLEAN SCREEN then they appear. I'm also using a new computer so I don't know if this is an AutoCAD issue or a graphics card issue. The card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M.
Thanks,
Dennis

I'm not seeing that on my version of 2018. do you have the 2018.01 update installed?
does it happen in every drawing, every time you use the block editor?

I'm not sure I have the update installed. I just downloaded 2018 from Autodesk last week thru my subscription. I've only been working on one drawing for a short time when I noticed the problem. Working in the same drawing in a different machine in 2017 was fine.

to determine your current version, type ABOUT then <enter> at the command line. In the dialog that appears, you will be able to see your current versioning. My understanding is that the update is only available via your account at https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/ or in the Autodesk Desktop App.

I do have the current update installed. I still have no visible geometry in the block editor unless I run the CLEANSCREEN command.

Are you able to uninstall the update? I believe it should be an option within control panel. I'm not running the update, I wonder if it is a bug with the update.

I have also found this behavior when using the same computer but with an auxiliary monitor attached that uses an different video card.
