Reported upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764330 There's a patch in the upstream bug, could you please test it with LE and let us know the results? Download latest vte-0.44.x tarball; untar; apply patch; ./autogen.sh --without-pcre2; make; ./src/vte-2.91 => try within this test emulator Could you please provide *concrete* steps to reproduce the problem?

cat the file to terminal to see the problem
To reproduce the problem, output this file to the terminal. If the bug is present, you will see cyan coloured glitches (compare with xterm).
Thanks; based on this I can confirm that the two upstream patches fix this problem. (Alas, there's a new one triggered by LE in vte >= 0.44: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754596#c15) Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 1141096 [details] the glitches (1) Description of problem: When ncurses uses a tab to position cursor, vte sometimes (when the tab is past all non-blank characters on the line) clears the space with background color. It's unexpected as the terminfo does not have xt (dest_tabs_magic_smso) property. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vte291-0.40.3-1.fc22.x86_64 gnome-terminal-3.16.2-2.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: In LE editor with certain files and cursor position. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a file in LE 2. Position cursor on a tab stop near the line end 3. move cursor up/down Actual results: see the photos. Expected results: no glitches on the screen Additional info:
