Project - Blurry and Inverted Black/Blocky Areas

Resolution: Integrated Graphics card settings
I had the same issue w/ JUST Project, and it was not easy searching for others with same issue & finding a solution. Your screenshots were very helpful !
See the setting I changed to resolve - I had an Intel HD Graphics controller.
When I turned OFF the CONSERVATIVE MORPHOLOGICAL ANTI-ALIASING, It fixed the issue with MS Project.
SEE PICS BELOW
In case image does not come through...
-type in at start search bar "Graphics Settings" - if the Project does not appear browse for the loation of Project: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\WINPROJ.EXE" and set it to appear.
-Now set to high performance
For me to get to the setting:
-Next Task is to find your graphics controller setting and turn anti-aliasing off.
Goto SETTINGS - > DISPLAY on left side -> scroll down and click on DISPLAY ADAPTER PROPERTIES FOR DISPLAY 1 - > on pop-up screen it lists your Adapter type, here it was my Intel HD Graphics card CLICK TAB Intel HD Graphics Control Panel -> Click GRAPHIC PROPERTIES.... goto 3D settings -> turn off ANTI_ALIASING
all other settings can still be High Performance.Also you may be able to see the Display Controller if you right click on task manager and see its icon there.

Hi both thanks for all your suggestions, I've tried a lower res, same...
I will be getting hold of an identical computer in the next week or so and see if it has the same problem, if so, I guess its a driver issue (or at least an issue with Project on this type of machine).
Many thanks for your assistance, I will post a final message when I get to a answer.
PS updated to the newest version, still the same

I had not forgot about this Post and was still trying to resolve it, in fact I came back today to give you all an update...the update would have been that I am still having the issues even with an identical machine...
BUT..
Thanks to your post it has fixed the problem.
I would never have found that setting to change and I was almost in the frame of mind to buy a new laptop to resolve this issue.
I am in your debt, thank you so much for posting this and all the help I have been given on this site and to the other contributors such as John-project .
- JD,
Thanks for jumping in. Hopefully the original poster will see your suggestion and will provide him/her some help.
John
