Unity 5.6.1 Animation Preview Bug?

This just happened to me today. I imported some new animation packages and, any animation I preview now looks like this.

Just Upgraded to 5.6.2f1 and preview window works fine. Here’s a video to assure everyone.

Trails are fixed in 5.6.1p1

5.6.1f1

Edit: I just tested animation previews in an older unity version. It works good.

Same for me on 5.6.1f1

Same for me, also occurring only on build 5.6.1f1 (64 bit)

Could be fixed (eventually) by the following?

Here’s another thread with this same issue Unity 5.6.1 Animation Preview Bug? - Unity Engine - Unity Discussions
At this point I hope they announce a fix or, just fix it in the next update.

I first hit google searching for “Animation preview ghosting” and got no results. almost accepted it was my video driver and gave up, but decided to try changing “ghosting” to “bug”, and here we are. glad it’s not my video driver and hopefully, my now 3rd mention of the word GHOSTING will help others with like-mind find this thread. :slight_smile:

Have mod’s done some merge trickery or did you accidentally post a link to the same thread you were posting in?

+1 to Animation Window Distortion Bug :((5.6.1f1 64 bit)
I started with new project, imported an animated character, the bug is there as soon as you move the camera.

Same problem here… (5.6.1f1 64bit also)

Same problem with model preview.

Somebody forgot to clear the frame buffer! :slight_smile:

I think it’s a bug of version 5.6.1, because on 5.6.0 all works OK.
Some users have this problem too:

Looks like its fixed in the 5.6.1.p1 patch

I just updated to 5.6.1p1, trails are fixed.

Sorry to ask such a basic question, but how do I upgrade to 5.6.1p1? When I use the “check updates” function in Unity it says 5.6.1f1 is the most recent update. The unity download archive doesn’t have 5.6.1p1 either… (Download Archive) Again, sorry for being such a noob, but I would love to get this problem fixed.
