fills turning black

sporadic problem - open a project & most fills are all black, like when you zoom in on a fill & it's black for a moment. These stay black. Usually it fixes itself if I close & reopen, today nothing fixes it (reboot, etc). I can grab attributes of a fill that has not turned black & fix it that way but there are too many fills to do this on all. Thoughts?

Could it be a graphics card driver problem?
Please update your drivers and see if that fixes it.

Thanks Lazlo - turned out to be the Model View Options settings. One of the nicest things about my Mac is that it likes to change settings now & then - just to get me mad. And of course it only changes settings in places I have no experience or knowledge so it is hard for me to fix.

The most common way of unintentionally changing MVO is to activate a saved View. Those have MVO settings stored in them so they will apply to stored MVO settings when activated.
Just something to keep in mind.
