I am running a Vista PC with 4GB RAM and other complimentarily high spec hardware.

I am having trouble when adding ‘stroke’ effects to layers. At times I end up with horrendous colour-of-the-stoke spots/patches all over my layer. I have boild the issue down to the following reason: there are small one-pixelish or larger ‘holes’ in the layer and therefore the stroke is placed around these ‘holes’. If the stroke is placed ‘inside’ then the spots/patches will appear but when the stroke is placed on the ‘outside’ then the spots/patches do not appear.

This issue happens pretty much all the time when stretching and distorting and warping a layer or (in particular) when adding, for example, white space to a layer and then popping a stroke onto it.

I do not seem to remember it happening in the past – since a year past (mid-2007) – but seems to be happening to an increasing degree recently. I never noticed it happening before using CS3.
