I'm affected by this bug. I independently discovered the disable "Use transparency from system theme" fix.
I don't think I had this problem with an NVIDIA graphics card, it was only when I changed over to an AMD RX580 that the flickering started. Ubuntu 18.04 AMD RX580 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726262 Title: 17.10 - flickering overlay patterns in gnome-terminal Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Clean install of Ubuntu 17.10. For gnome-terminal select color-scheme "black on light yellow". Overlay partly with e.g. Chrome (Browser) or Geany (editor). Then the border shadow of the e.g. Geany produces flickering extended shadows in the gnome-terminal. Foto with the extended shadows is attached. This bug was introduced with 17.10. This flickering didn't appear in 17.04, 16.10, 16.04... Working as a developer with several open terminal windows on the desktop, this produces a disturbing desktop environment and mitigated by covering not used terminal windows complete with other apps. Haven't reproduced with other apps than gnome-terminal.
