Also tested on Fedora 30, the issue exists but manifests slightly differently.
Should I raise this upstream? If so which GNOME project should it be raised against? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1831140 Title: GNOME Magnifier Flickering when using none-full screen modes Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When using the GNOME magnifier (Zoom) feature the magnified display flickers when used in any of the following modes: Left, Right, Top or Bottom screen part. This occures when the mouse moves towards the edge directly opossite to the magnified view. To reproduce: * Open GNOME Control Centre. * Go to Universal Access. * Click on Zoom. * Enable Zoom * Selct either Top, Bottom, Left or Right from the screen part drop down list. * Move the mouse cursor to the opossite edge of the screen to that where the magnified view is located. I have tested on multiple systems running Ubuntu 18.04. I am yet to test with 19.04. I use this feature to allow me to use two monitors with one showing a magnified view the other showing a normal view. Happy to provide additional details.
