I filed a Mozilla bug report about this here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204694
I also created a video showing how I can reproduce this bug every time in Thunderbird: https://youtu.be/ybkVPSfiNJs The bug seems to be related to the spell-check-as-you-type feature, but may be related to the graphics driver as well, as the bug occurs on my laptop (Radeon open-source drivers) but not my desktop (NVIDIA proprietary drivers). More info can be found in the bug report I linked above. ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #1204694 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1204694 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1301225 Title: Parts of Text disappear in Firefox and Thunderbird Editors /Text Areas To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1301225/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
