Created attachment 143041 [details] TestFile showing the effect Will add a TestFile showing the effect. Creation is somewhat complicated: - New Writer - F5 (open Explorer) - Move Explorer aside Writer-View - Prepare some texts to embed as Sections (at least two, better four) - insert/Section... - Insert all prepared texts as sections - Open 'Section' part of Explorer to show these - Choose one, Edit, make invisible (Hide) -> Explorer content constantly blinking when WriterEditView has focus Or: Load test document (answer update question with 'no')
Reason is the methjod the Explorer gets updated: - Timer-based content is re-created every second - Then checked for changes - If changed, repaint -> blinking Result for 'is changed' wrong in these cases due to entries for list in 'Section' compared currently at creation-time with the old versions. This fails due to now a sorted-list is used. Needed change: Compare after new list is completety created.

Checked against test doc and another one with content (original complex one), looks good. Checking linux version...
All good, done.
