There seems to be a problem with the rendering of the wireframe on a mesh in this version.  The wireframe is pink instead of black, and I cannot double click on an edge to select edge loops etc. 

  I'm just checking your Mar 09 update now as I skipped that version; to see if the problem is also there.

The last version that I had installed and that works well is 2015-Feb-01


p.s. ok just checked Mar 09 version and it is rendering fine.  So it just seems to be this latest version.

ghib, I don't see the problem. I don't think I have touched the rendering recently. It is likely a specific scene related. You may have the geometry too close to the front clipping plane.

Thanks for responding IStonia,  I don't think it was the clipping plane as I use the 'Set View Focusing Point' all the time as I work in Nvil.  Also the mesh wireframe was appearing pink/purple instead of the usual black.  So that wasn't normal.

Very Frustratingly, I can't seem to reproduce this issue today after testing a bit more.  It might have been a specific problem with a particular mesh I was working on.  Unfortunately I don't have access to it anymore as it's a temporary obj I overwrite all the time (AppLink style)

If I see this issue again I'll try and pin down what the problem is a bit more thoroughly.
