    Hello all, New 2019 Mac Pro owner, having a very bizarre graphics issue with my otherwise-wonderful machine. In Photos, occasionally zooming a picture (i.e., select it and press space bar) out to its full size results in this: Sometimes, it shows most of the picture but the blue "glitch"...

    Green lines on random images in Photos app
