Description Justin Zobel 2025-02-11 02:28:04 UTC

SUMMARY
Spell check errors flash/flicker while typing

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable spell check (right click in input box and check Spell check)
2. Type out some text that includes obvious spelling mistakes

OBSERVED RESULT
Flickering as seen on video

EXPECTED RESULT
No flickering

NeoChat: 24.12.2
KDE Flatpak runtime (Wayland)
libQuotient: 0.9.2 (built against 0.9.2)

Qt: Using 6.8.2 and built against 6.8.2
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
A possible fix would be to only do the spell check once the user stops typing for more than 0.5 seconds or 1 second, etc.

Hmm, I don't see this on NeoChat on my system below...do you have a way to try out a version using Frameworks 6.11 by chance?
