VogieScratch: Are others having the problem?
Yes, I am. It started back last fall and is intermittent for me. It will stay a few days then go away for a few weeks. You have to be very careful when putting the dot down full back, that you click again to lock in the green color. Otherwise, when you bring the meter back the spin dot goes up with it, moving to red and full top. Can be quite frustrating when you have a good game going and you don't catch it. It has not bothered me in probably two months, but last two days or so it is back.
I've tried several different mouses, currently with a wired gaming mouse that is new this year. Clean caches regularly. Bought my current mouse thinking for sure that my old mouse was the problem, but not. Dunno.
