Having a lot of graphical issues with Yosemite and the latest Gamesalad update.

I am having to restart gamesalad many times to get rid of these strange graphical problems I am having now. Granted I am mostly using older gamesalad templates but these issues did not occur til the latest update. I don't remember having them before the update or after Yosemite.

Scrolling through list of rules is also very choppy and sluggish. I also JUST updated gamesalad too when this happened. The program is unusable and these screen shots occur every time with seconds that I open the program. Here are some examples:

This is the only program I am having issues in. Brand new mac as of late march of this year. My specs are here:

EDITS:
Just deleted and reinstalled Gamesalad from a fresh download and I am still having the same problems.

Edit that fixed the problem (sort of):
I think I can confirm that the update doesn't run well with Yosemite. I used this link: (http://gamesalad.com/download/releases), then downgraded to release 11.1.11 and the graphical errors have stopped. It's still a little choppy when scrolling through the rules but at least the visual problems have seemed to go away.

    That's horrible.

    Maybe you should create a bug report.

    From looking at the screen shots it looks like your graphics card my be the issue. Artifacts like that can come from a bad graphics card or bad connector to the display.

    I would have to agree with what @BlackCloakGS‌ said. Those types of problems don't look like GS faults. Its something with your computer, graphics card most likely.

    I see what you guys are saying, but even if the problem was fixed by installing a previous version of gamesalad you still think it could be the video card?

    I have absolutely no other issues aside from the new version of gamesalad.

    I just don't understand why it only happens with the new gamesalad update and not previous versions if it's a video card issue. :/

    I seem to have fixed my problem. After the game salad issues I began to have issues with safari not display webpages right. Then I went on google and found out that Yosemite has been causing video card issues and I am far from the only one with problems. I have installed a clean fresh version of mavericks and everything seems to be perfect! So Hopefully I have solved my problem and narrows the issue down to being Yosemite!

    Does anyone have hints how to fix these display problems with Yosemite?
    Yosemite drives me crazy.

    For example:
    If i place the cursor into a textfield of my rule the content of the field disapears.
    Fields with attribute placeholders are very hard to select and so on....

    :-(
