Having an issue off and on with the spots flashing. Seems to slow the program as well.
Here is a video show it happen a few times.
Any ideas?

Have you tried a different cluster?

No I have not. This could make it flicker?
I am using VE7CC.
Any suggestions on another?

Try any in the drop down list like GB7MBC or WA9PIE

It's something related to information refresh... but it should not be so slow...
Can you kindly check if there is something (or Log4OM itself) that is keeping CPU at highest values?
Thanks

My CPU is running about 38 to 40% with the following desktop apps running
Outlook, teamviewer, two instances of WSJT-x, two instances of JTalert, SmartSDR and everything Log4OM. This seems acceptable for that many apps.
Normally, I am not running Teamviewer but at the moment I am working.
Its a pretty stout i7 CPU, with SSDs and lots of RAM.

Please try without WSJT and JTAlert running as I recall an issue when one of those programs and their 'Bring to front' on alert function
And did you try another cluster?

For whatever reason its not doing it at the moment. If/When it returns I will try that.
Your idea seems likely as JTAlert does something strange always trying to take focus and using the clipboard I think.
I work from my home office/shack and often end up pasting someones callsign when working in office applications.
