I am having text flashing issues in several text editors. Loading a large file causing the scrollbar to appear stops the issue. Linux Mint 19, i see it in gedit and xed. I'm on a MS Surface Pro-4 with the jakeday kernel installed.

There is textview flashing issue when the textview doesn't have its side-scrollbar. Typically, short text in textview can make this condition satisified. 1) Editor textview flashing problem only happens in OS physical hosts, and doesn't happen when editors run inside Virtualbox. 2) Editor textview flashing problem doesn't happen in Ubuntu 16.04 which is of lower gtk3 version; 3) If text document is long to generate either side of scrollbar for the editor textview, then the textview is no longer flashing. More to see: https://github.com/mate-desktop/pluma/issues/282 Still, I just ensure that it is not a pluma issue but happens in all gtk3-based text editor including gedit.
