I’m using an up to date version of Rhino 7 and when I double click the color square in the layers panel to change the layer color the program freezes and there is nothing to be done except end task. I have tried giving it time to work but it never returns to normal state. Is it just a bug in the new version or am I doing something wrong?
Another thing I’d like to know is why when writing commands like “mirror” rather obscure commands like “microscribecalibratetip” get suggested first even though I have mirrored quite a few things but never used any of the other commands. I’m so used to my most used commands being suggested that i have crashed the program a few times accidentally triggering “microscribecalibratetip” instead of “mirror”. Does the program not learn from my usage? If not, can I change the pecking order of commands?

will you run the systeminfo command in rhino and paste the result here? I’m willing to bet you need a video card driver update, but that will help us see what your system set up is.

if you pull the second monitor does it still crash?
If not, then have you followed these steps?
Hybrid graphics laptops are more and more common if you buy a consumer grade machine. (I recommend buying a mobile workstation for professional modeling but these hybrid machines are quite prevalent in the consumer market, especially for students.)
They tend to generate a TON of tech support here because of the way they are set up from the factory.
Hybrid systems are built with 2 graphics processors. A low power graphics chip (typically Intel HD or UHD) and a high power graphics card. However…

Those steps worked. Thanks so much!
