    Can you tell me if you changes the look and feel setting within Moneydance? If so can you change it back to the Windows Look and feel option.

    No I haven't changed anything from default install.
    I have only had this program a few days and its been doing it from the beginning.

    Hi Tony,

    Could you try changing the default look and view to Windows by going to File -> Preferences in Moneydance, then change the "Look and Feel" to Windows under the "General" tab?

    If that doesn't work or it's already set to that, can you send us the output of your console log? This can be found by going to Help -> Console window in Moneydance, then clicking the "Copy to clipboard" button and pasting the output to us here.

    Also, if possible, could you send us a screenshot of what you're seeing?

    Hi Tony,

    It's possible that this is being caused by some issue with your video card drivers. Could you try updating them and see if that fixes the black window problems?

    Do you have any other Java applications on your computer and, if so, do they have the same problem at all?

    I have change my display to my internal graphics card (VGA), and it all seems to work ok, so I now know its related to my Radeon 6900 graphics card.

     

    Do you have any ideas on what it might be? I have the latest drivers for it.

    I did some research on this and I found a report from a user of a different Java application that said an option in their graphics card driver to "force anti-aliasing for all applications" caused behaviour similar to the problem you have described above. They were using a different video card and I still think it might be worth taking a look at you video card options and seeing if there is anything similar to that option.
