Bug ID: 153303
Summary: Window flickers (content shifts) on every key press
when having opened multiple windows of a document
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

Recording of partial Writer Window (right part truncated for privacy and for
size reasons)
Situation:
I had opened a document, enabled "track changes" and displayed a specific part
of a document in a window. As I wanted to write a similar part to the same
document I opened a second window to view the first part and started typing on
the original window...
What happened:
Every key press caused significant flickering (actually it seemed the whole
content was shifted horizontally by a significant amount momentarily).
Also the cursor was offset several centimeters to the right where the text had
been entered actually. However when clicking to empty space, the cursor was
re-positioned to the actual end of the text. See the video recording...
This seems to be "yet another oddity when using multiple views on a document",
and it seems something is fundamentally broken or "mis-implemented" with
multiple views (windows) of a document.
