Description Albert Astals Cid 2020-09-14 22:02:50 UTC

See the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxodJC2CdTg

This is using Plasma, Qt 5.15.1, KF 5.74.0, X11

Can't reproduce it, just happens seldomly from time to time, scrolling in the view fixes it.

So yeah unreproducible bug, probably not a very useful report, mostly wondering if i'm the only one that as seen it.

Looks awful :/
But yes, no idea how to get that.

Comment 2 Justin Zobel 2020-10-27 07:06:11 UTC

I've not seen this myself either. Could be a graphical issue due to a driver maybe?

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2020-10-27 18:57:17 UTC

Given that kate is the only program i get this, even if it was a driver issue, i don't care, it's a kate issue :)

Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2020-12-07 22:03:14 UTC

seems an update may have fixed it, so most probably wasn't really kate's fault
