Studio MX 2004 released - Support Forum

The jump from Dreamweaver 4 to MX was massive - it became almost a different product, with decent CSS support, Accessibility, and all the server-side options. This version is definitely an upgrade.

Yes I have this problem too. It really makes it hard to deal with. I hope they come out with a update soon.

Try turning your hardware acceleration down a notch. This is one of the known issues being looked into:

I notice that this problem particularly happens if DW doesn't have any open files and has to redraw itself. It tends to redraw the main window and each panel about 7 times. This is especially true if some of the panels are undocked and free floating. Quite annoying!
