@mishushakov may you help provide following information

• is it a regression with 1.36.1?
• when did you start to see this issue?

@rebornix Hey, Really difficult for me to tell, when it first occurred, because most of the time i probably didn't actually noticed that.

If i open editor and scroll with touchpad (as in the video) i start to see, that some lines appear to move faster and some slower, which feels like a parallax effect to my eyes.

It reminds me of a frame-skip feature in Nintendos :D

First time i noticed it i just thought i'm going crazy, but after a good break i see, that it is not because of that...

Here is my configuration:

{
  "files.exclude": {
    "**/__pycache__": true,
    "**/.DS_Store": false,
    "**/.git": true,
    "**/.gitignore": false,
    "**/.hg": true,
    "**/.svn": true,
    "**/.yarn-integrity": true,
    "**/CVS": true,
    "**/node_modules": true,
    "**/venv": true,
    "**/yarn.lock": true
  },
  "git.enableSmartCommit": true,
  "git.confirmSync": false,
  "vetur.validation.template": false,
  "editor.minimap.enabled": false,
  "workbench.panel.location": "bottom",
  "explorer.confirmDelete": false,
  "extensions.ignoreRecommendations": true,
  "explorer.confirmDragAndDrop": false,
  "typescript.updateImportsOnFileMove.enabled": "always",
  "material-icon-theme.activeIconPack": "none",
  "telemetry.enableTelemetry": false,
  "telemetry.enableCrashReporter": false,
  "workbench.enableExperiments": false,
  "workbench.statusBar.feedback.visible": false,
  "diffEditor.renderSideBySide": false,
  "rest-client.enableTelemetry": false,
  "editor.tabCompletion": "on",
  "workbench.iconTheme": "material-icon-theme",
  "breadcrumbs.enabled": false,
  "window.zoomLevel": 1,
  "editor.multiCursorModifier": "alt",
  "workbench.colorTheme": "One Dark Pro"
}

Here is a list of plugins:

Here is my trackpad configuration:

I will try it on a difficult mac tomorrow. Let me know anything i can share with you to find the roots of the issue.

Thanks.

@mishushakov is there any particular pattern when you run into the scrolling lagging? For example, what is the language of files you are working, etc.

[mishushakov]

Yeah, its pretty annoying. Just noticed, that its not only in the editor, but everywhere. I didn't do anything special. Here some more vids:

Just fixed same problem by disabling in settings.json: // "window.zoomLevel": -1,

Hey, noticed another artefact in markdown files: sometimes a pink line appears and disappears

Thanks.
