CTRL+P causes blue filter on screen

[MelissaAnn Majestic]

I'm not sure how else to describe what I'm seeing happen. When I'm logged in and use CTRL+P, a blue filter appears on the screen and takes what can only be decribed as a snapshot if I left mouse click. I can't seem to take a snapshot of it to show you either. I'm unsure what this is or how to clear it other than to sign out. Any thoughts?

When I hit Ctrl + P in the viewer the Preferences dialog pops up. You may have another application running on your computer that's capturing that keystroke combination.

Sorry I should've mentioned that it also does it when I select Preferences from the drop down menu in game. I think I had something like this happen once before but can't remember what was the cause. After over a decade, I forget lots of tricks

Open the snapshot window and untick Freeze Frame then relog.

Leave Freeze Frame disabled for now.

This is a bug on the latest release - if you login with freeze frame enabled and open Preferences, the viewer gets stuck in an odd freeze frame state & you'll have to relog to totally fix it.

OMG! Thank you! I was beginning to worry that it was my computer falling behind the latest needs. I voted on the bug report. Here's hoping it gets a permenant fix.
