Noob Question

[Earache]

Brand new to this system and already have a question. How do you disable the blurred areas and have it all legible? That is driving me crazy the first few seconds after I started.

TIA

what do you mean by a blurred area? can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

[Earache]

Well in the program the areas not around my mouse are out of focus and blurred. When I move my cursor to other areas of the screen they come into focus.

That doesnt sound like anything in Fantasy Grounds I've ever heard of or seen. Perhaps a graphics card issue? or some other overlay software?

Welcome to the forums!

Sorry you're having issues.

I'm only guessing, but is your issue that portions of the application are blurry, but when you move the mouse they become clearer? If so, this is going to be an issue which the graphics driver/setup on your computer. If this is not the issue then please provide more info. Thanks.

Things to try:
1) Click the settings button on the main FG launch screen and enable (or disable if it's already enabled) "Cross-platform compatibility for Linux and Mac" even if you're not using those operating systems.
2) If you have dual graphics cards on your system, set FantasyGrounds.exe to specifically use the dedicated one instead of the onboard one.
3) Change some settings in your graphics card advanced settings. The most common culprit is anti-aliasing - try turning that off.
4) There have been a few posts about this in the past - use the "Site search" link at the top of the screen, search for "blurred" or "blur" and see if any of the resolutions help.

Not a great way to start for sure.

Even when I move my cursor on the options list much of it goes in and out of focus. All other buttons and tabs are out of focus until I mouse over them.

Yes

do you have any software installed that might have an overlay? steam? twitch? discord? one of those might be putting an overlay over the application causing the blurriness.

Nah. No overlays.

Wasn't this an issue on Mac's where the focus was on the cursor?
