Flickering text with linum-relative #23

Hello,

I really like this package but I have this issue where if I enable linum-relative sometimes the text will flicker when moving vertically. I found someone else who also had this issue and he had a video of it on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-V-qXoeZ1w.

@Pireax Do you have this issue when running linum-mode only ?

Pireax commented 9 years ago

No, it works fine using linum mode only.

coldnew commented 9 years ago

Hmm... it's werid. linum-relative work on my MacOSX 10.10.5 with emacs 24.5.1 without flikering. Which OS and emacs do you use ?

I found there's another flickering issue on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/2r89ny/

Yeah that actually the guy the video's from! I use Windows 8.1 with Emacs 24.5.

Can confirm, there's massive flickering on Windows when using linum-relative, any idea why? This seems to be the only package I have that causes emacs to flicker so much when scrolling.

// On my OSX machine there's no problem.

Also getting huge flickering, on Windows 10, using only the relative line numbering - normal line numbering with linum works fine. I also get this flickering when using the other popular relative line numbering package for Emacs.

I'm on Linux, considerable flickering with relative line numbers.

azjgard commented 7 years ago

On Windows 7, also considerable flickering with relative line numbers.

This also happens to builtin relative linum in terminal emacs.

@amosbird Which operating system do you use when has flickering text issue with relative linum? Windows?

amosbird commented 6 years ago

It's running in a remote CensOS 7 box. The host uses ssh and alacritty.
