Yes, for all GPU-accelerated window manager such as mutter, metacity- composite, marco-composite, these is no screen flashing. However, disable GPU-accelerate will make it sharply flash, typically using metacity-nocomposite and marco-nocomposite.
However, even if using to metacity-nocomposite/marco-nocomposite to disable GPU-accelerate, all gtk2.0-based textview such as leafpad is still good and doesn't flash at all, but all gtk3.0 textview will heavily flash that makes eyes unconfortable. Especially for black-background + white-foreground textview => maximum the text editor => fill full text in editor while ensuring no boundary overflow to prevent producing the side scrollbar => dynamic selecting multi-line text by mouse => extrodinary high-contrast flashing nearly makes eyes blind. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1751417 Title: gtk3.22 makes gedit & pluma screen flash for short text only To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1751417/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
