Description Buovjaga 2024-08-30 06:07:02 UTC 
Use kf5 or kf6 UI.

1. Open any dialog with an editable GtkTextView input field, such as

Insert - Object - QR and Barcode - URL/Text

or

Insert - Field - More Fields (Ctrl+F2) - Variables - User Field - Value

2. Type some text

The right edge of the text is cut off by the width of one pixel. The glitch is gone after a few seconds.

I did not have time to search for more field candidates, so 7.6 is as far back in the history as I got.

Note: there is an older issue with the cursor leaving traces behind when using arrow keys, bug 162703.

The glitch remains for me. At first glance, it looks to me like the column of pixels where the blinking cursor overlaps the text is affected.
