System Information
iMacPro Intel - 3,2 GHz Intel Xeon W de 8 cores - 32 GB 2666 MHz DDR4
Operating system: macOS Sonoma 14.3 (23D56)
Graphics card: Radeon Pro Vega 56 8 GB

Blender Version
4.02
Worked: (a few weeks ago)

Short description of error
Rendering is working fine and I can hear the fans when is a hard rendering.
Viewport shading is working fine in all options, EEVEE and Rendering.
There's a very weird issue when rendering and the viewport is also in preview or rendered mode, the top menu of the Mac turns blurish red, of course can be a GPU issue but as I said the fans are working fine in hard render situations, can be a viewport and rendering using metal at the same time? sorry for my lack of knowledge, just wanted to find if is a private GPU problem or a Blender+MacOS question as it only happens with Blender, obviously the most demanding GPU work.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible).

Hi, thanks for the report. Don't have mac system to test but I don't think blender (more specifically rendering) will affect the top bar color.
Maybe something like dynamic wallpaper is affecting the color?

Does it mean same version (4.0.2) was "working" earlier?

I don't think that's a bug on Blender side. Some OS settings likely caused the problem (maybe OS update: 14.3).

Ok, it also can be a dying GPU, I was hopping that was a problem between a metal update and Blender viewport or render manager. Thank you

I was already aware of this forum post, thank you. it takes me to the worst point a possible GPU damage, but today I will try again with apple support, thank you very much for your time and search was really nice of you.
