I used the following command to test Abiword (3.0.1-6ubuntu0.16.04.1) in Lubuntu 16.04 (upgraded from 14.04 and fully updated) and in Lubuntu 16.04's Openbox session:
GTK_THEME=Theme_name abiword /usr/share/doc/abiword/copyright The themes I tested were: Adwaita (installed by default) Adwaita:dark Ambiance and Radiance (from the light-themes package) Greybird and Numix (from the shimmer-themes package) Lubuntu-default In my system, both Lubuntu (LXDE + Openbox) and Openbox, only Adwaita and Adwaita:dark were flicker-free. With all the other themes listed above, there was an approximately 4 cm tall, screen-wide area that flickered shortly after the page loaded. The flickering did not affect the UI and didn't seem particularly related to the cursor. My system is a Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop (Core2Duo, 4GB RAM, 64-bit, no GPU) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574278 Title: AbiWord text cursor starts to flicker after adding some text To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/abiword/+bug/1574278/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
