All working fine here. You will need to post some more information about you system for anyone to help.

(Intel 3rd gen i5@4.1GHz, 32GB RAM, SSD, 1080Ti GPU, Windows 10) Not now used with Vegas.

13th gen i913900K - water cooled, 96GB RAM, 4TB M2 drive, 4TB games SSD, 2TB video SSD, GPU RTX 4080 Super, Windows 11 pro

No point in posting more information. It does this on every single system I've tried, multiple different Nvidia, AMD, and Intel GPUs/CPUs. Windows 10 and 11.

It's a general failure not tied to any specific cpu, video card, or any other device.

Have now confirmed the same issue with v19. Issue only appeared after the emergency fixes were installed.

v18 and lower still work normally.

Never seen this before. You are sure it's not the NVIDIA driver bug that breaks previews?

Already tried a full uninstall/reinstall, and full preferences wipe.

Same issue happens without nvidia graphics, too. Happens on Intel graphics.

Nothing makes either grid or safe zone overlays work ... it turns blue like they're active, but nothing appears.

In addition, there's no little circle by the option indicating it's selected.

If nobody else has an idea I'd file a support request.

I guess ... email sent.

I got the grid to appear ONCE, after a full reinstall/reset. Then it stopped working again, and hasn't worked since.

At this point, I'm having to use two tracks and overlay PNGs.

Interesting thread, but not germaine to my situation - I do not have a Nahimic driver installed.

Still tried disabling the GPU on WPF panels, didn't make a difference.

I did figure out a clear series of steps to reproduce:
1) use a fresh clean install of Vegas 20 (with all default preferences)
2) right-click, insert a blank video track
3) Select "Grid" or "Safe Zones" on preview overlays. The overlay will apear.
4) Click the menu header (which is blue) to disable the overlay.
5) Select "Grid" or "Safe Zones" on preview overlays. The overlay will no longer appear. In fact it will never appear again.
6) Verify the menu header is blue indicating overlay is active.
7) Clicking the menu header to enable/disable the overlay also has no effect.

Aha, in the general Build 403 thread, we apparently have a fix (at least when using Nvidia GPU) :

So it is the NVIDIA bug that breaks previews; we've had a number of threads on that.
