Graphical Glitches

[adamjacobmuller]

Hi,

Installing (from HomeBrew) the latest version of MacVim results in major graphical glitches for me.

That is version 8.1-151_2

Testing with 8.1-149_1 (what was on my old laptop) seems to work fine.

I can probably get some git bisect magic working if required to narrow the issue down further.

Hi, there I am also getting this same behavior. Thanks for reporting @adamjacobmuller

I am experiencing issues with version 8.1-151_1

I have got the same behavior on 8.1-151_1 and 8.1-151_2

After disabled the Use Core Text render option, this behavior disappeared.

disabling Use Core Text render fixes the issue for me too. Requires a restart, tested with that earlier without a restart...

Closing as duplicate of #751. There should be a fix by end of week.

For ways of mitigating this for now, refer to the other issue, but you could download a binary from our releases or turn off Core Text Renderer for now.
