    This is really irritating. I figured Unity was just bugged and it would be fixed by restarting the program. I was wrong. The preview window is broken. It wasn't always like this - it just happened all of a sudden. Even new, blank projects suffer from this. Whenever I rotate the preview of the mesh or material, it leaves trails like this. Sometimes, they stay there. Sometimes they disappear within a few seconds. Sometimes, it even leaves the previous asset preview behind the current asset preview. Even the thumbnail of assets in the asset explorer is broken. It's impossible to properly view meshes and materials.

    Unity version is 5.6.1f1.
    Windows 10 1703 (15063.296)
    Computer specs are not a problem: GTX 1060, AMD FX 8350, 16GB DDR3 RAM.

    I have the same issue. I am new to unity though so can't say it hasn't always been like this, except I see the tutorial videos have it working fine! nVidia 970 driver version 382.05, Win 10 with all latest updates including creator edition. Please just chuck a glClear in there Unity!

    That seems to unfortunately not be the case.
