    At startup, the OS X client (patch level ) puts up a window that starts white and is then rapidly redrawn several times, flashing the entire display. Disconcerting and not very professional looking. I managed to capture the final screen before it jumped to the SotA splash, see below. This looks to me like Unity(?) is drawing into a window at an incorrect resolution - given the somewhat repetitious nature of the actual info at the bottom - presumably during a startup sequence.

    This is a known issue we're working on resolving. Thanks for reporting though!

    Were you eventually able to get out of that state?

    @Serafina, yes it progresses to the normal splash screen with no user action needed. Usually pretty quickly, but it paused long enough this time for me to grab the screen shot.
