Xsection display problem in Creo Parametric 1.0

When I create Xsection in a part (in Creo Parametric 1.0 M010), then activate it and make it visible, I'll receive unexpected result. See two attached pictures. I guess it is a bug. What do you think about it ?

I forget to test the problem with config.pro option graphics win32_gdi ...

When I set this option then Xsection is displayed correctly (in Creo Parametric 1.0 M010).

This means that the problem is related to OPENGL graphics and I have to find the right driver for my graphic card.

I agree also I saw that solid model looks empty if you go to visibility in Creo!

CREOp seems to be heavier on the graphics card - it defaults to transparency ON and uses this for mouse-over highliting - its faster with transparency off but solid highliting is unusable.

The graphics engine appears to be new and buggy - if I turn transparency off I cant get it back on via Model Display, have to go to the config.pro file and change it. Anti-aliasing (smooth lines) has a mind of its own as well - its fantastic in drawing mode when it works, but frequently switchs off for some unknown reason.
