Hello, forum
I am using my father's mid-2012 15" rMBP for a while. I had just installed a fresh copy of Mavericks a while back and was installing Sublime Text when I left the laptop for a minute. When I came back and woke the laptop from sleep, I found half the screen with extreme graphical glitches. As I refreshed the display by shifting spaces and opening Mission Control, the colour of the glitch changed but the shape and style remained the same. I took a screenshot and a photograph to confirm that it wasn't a screen hardware error and it seems that it's software based.
A reboot fixed the issue. I haven't used the laptop for long so I can't say whether the glitch is recurring but since I wasn't running anything unusual (Chrome and Sublime Text), I'm curious what caused it.
Any clue?
Regards
Raptor
