White pixel dot appearing
Basically what title says, sometimes a white dot appears on my WP, always at the same place.
It disaspears if I switch the WP for another one then put it back.

The mirrored version I also made seems not to be affected.

If you have an Nvidia GPU make sure you don't have 'image sharpening' enabled for all programs since it can create artifacts like that.

If that doesn't help, please share this log: https://steamcommunity.com/app/431960/discussions/1/3307213006836797842/ and ideally also the source project files somewhere. Although I don't think it should come from the project, it's basically a background image with a pulse effect and a preset fog effect, is that true?

I'll check nvidia settings.

As for the project, that's exactly that ! The source image is clean. Strange thing is if I open the project in the editor, the dot also appears here. It's always at the same place, and it's now present in the mirrored version, at the exactly same place (but mirrored)

Note that it dissapears with a program restart.

Could you share the source project files via support@wallpaperengine.io and reference this thread? Please also share the log file from the link posted above in the same email.

I checked out the wallpaper project and source files and I don't see any way this pixel could appear there (I also cannot get it to show up). I assume it's some odd driver or GPU issue. I am actually a bit confused because you seem to have Nvidia software installed but you don't seem to have an Nvidia graphics card, what's up with that? Try to uninstall all Nvidia software and afterwards update your Intel drivers and restart your PC:

You may even want to uninstall your Intel drivers first and then install the latest drivers from there in order to perform a clean re-installation.

Haha yes I'm in a akward situation, my GPU died a month ago and I'm using the IGP tuntil I build my new rig, that's why you see both NVidia and Intel's IGP driver. TBH I totally forgot about that, sorry.

Maybe it will be easier to keep you updated on this thread if I have the issue with the new rig ?
Should be up next week.

Ah okay, that explains that, maybe it's somehow related to that. Let me know if the issue persists on your new system, for now I really don't see a reason why that pixel would appear there.
