Color changes (and other things) do not change until I click on the page somewhere in Illustrator 2026
As in the title. I cannot see the changes I've made (fill color, stroke color, or fill/stroke flip) until I click on the page. Also after working on a file for some time, the "info" data stops working. i.e. the height and width (of an object) show zero instead of a number value. Restarting the app fixes it, but only temporarily.
Note: these same things are happening on 2 (completely different computers). One is a high-powered Alienware Area 51 desktop, the other is a high-powered Dell.

This is for Egor: You didin't read all of my post. This is happening on 2 (entirely differently configured) computers, thus negating your need for full specs. And NO it this never happened in previous versions. I've been using Illustrator for 35+ years. Kinda know what I'm doing.

Ronald, just to clarify — which configuration of Area-51, what GPU exactly (in case it matters)? Can you share full specs?
Were you able to see this behavior with a previous version of Illustrator?
