  3. press and hold the left or right arrow key on keyboard
  4. the text cursor will freeze but not follow the key press
  5. once key is released, the cursor will appears somewhere looks like it supposed to be

so caret stops moving during left/right pressing? I cannot confirm it on Win10. during left/right arrow hold, caret is moving. it is not blinking though, but it is moving.

did you test on CLEAN Cud?

Okay, looks like this is a device specific problem? I can't reproduce this on my home pc which also runs the same version of Windows.

Alexey-T commented 5 months ago

Yes, it does.

Try to open settings/user.json , and add option:

  "ui_buffered": false,

Or do it via 'Plugins / Options Editor Lite'.

Unfortunately this doesn't work, even worse, text behind the cursor starts flickering when cursor is moving when set ui_buffered to false.

closing. seems the bug is hardware dependant (or driver dependant).
