'Ghosting' effect when using ctrl+mousewheel to zoom
Using the ctrl+mousewheel keybind to zoom in and out of a score produces an incredibly subtle 'ghost' of the score, vertically above and to the left of it. The effect disappears when using shift+mousewheel, clicking and dragging, or any other method of moving about the score.
Above and between the staves of this wind quintet.
Barely visible above this piccolo line.
Everything is 'ghosted,' including notes, system text, staff text, tempo markings, rehearsal markings, etc. (as far as I can tell). I am able to reproduce this effect every time, across all scores, and it started happening out of the blue about a week or two ago. I was unsure about posting this as an 'issue' because it in no way hinders my ability to use the program, I just thought it was kind of neat. Anybody have any idea about what could be causing this?

Just for fun, I have contrasted the ghost notes above the flute of the wind quintet.

This is what's there:
The ghost notes are the same as the flute notes. Even stranger is that a greater number of measures are ghosted - notice the triplets towards the end and compare to the visible flute staff.
Was your screenshot made from the score in continuous view?

Yes, I was in continuous for both of the screenshots but the effect appears on page mode as well. The triplets you found are actually the next measure or so.
Here is the full line as seen in the flute part:

I think the ghost lines are actually slightly visually distorted, which is evident from the fact that you were able to see more measures in the ghost line than visible in the actual staff.
I also discovered that zooming out causes the same effect to occur below the staff as well, as seen in the bassoon part here. For a second I thought it might have been a screen-burn-artifacting-thing from before I zoomed out, but after testing it a bit it was pretty clear that the ghost lines are a separate thing, So bizarre.
