After not having used VectorWorks for twelve years or so, last night I created a new document with multiple layers, drew objects, saved it multiple times as I worked. So far so good.
Now most of the time when I open that document or create a new empty one, the entire window is filled with a repeating pattern, which even appears inside the rulers. Sometimes the pattern is a square array of tiny dots (perhaps a single pixel), sometimes one with lines. This can make it impossible to discern objects in the window. The pattern can change from one time I open the document to the next.
Since this appears with even a blank document and the pattern appears even inside the rulers, I'm inclined to suspect corruption of the application itself.

Suggestions? System info below:
VectorWorks 9.5.3
MacOS 10.5.8
iMac 1 GHz PowerPC G4
Thanks,
