FCP 10.3 Mask Tool Problem

FCP 10.3 Mask Tool Problem was created by John G
Hi All
I’ve been using FCP 10.3 for just a few days. I have noticed a problem with the ‘Draw Mask’ tool.
When creating and dragging points around, the viewer goes black.
While dragging on a point the viewer stays black until you let go of the mouse - which is hugely annoying as you can’t see where you’re dragging to! Switching to 'Better Performance' doesn't help. I'm working on 1080p ProRes material on a Retina i-Mac.
Anyone else seeing this? I use the draw mask tool quite often. There was never a problem in previous FCPX versions.

Hi again
False alarm!
I did a few experiments but couldn't recreate the problem. So I copied and pasted the footage into a new project. Problem solved! Looks like a bug had got into that particular timeline.
