Post subject:  [Bug] highlighting long lines causes phantom code

When I am highlighting text within the code editor and the line I am selecting is a very long line it often causes the line to be duplicated to the right of the line (some sort of video glitch) . It appears as a continuation of the code on the line which is very disconcerting as it confuses you as to the end of the line. The code is "phantom code", ie . it disappears when you click elsewhere on the code editor window.

This occurs on my laptop with an Nvidia 8600m graphics card, I have not installed Xwidgets on any other laptop so I do not know whether the problems is specific to my machine.

this will happen after installing nvidia drivers (i think windows preinstalled driver doesn't have this problem)

by making selection of a typed texts (marking it blue), after scrolling a page (Vertical or Horizontal) the yellow line (that indicate the line you're in) doesn't update and make confusion about the text in the line.

i don't know if it should be fixed by xwidget or by nvidia.
is there anyone else that have this problem?

Same continues to happen on Intel video cards too... It appears as if its something inside Xwidget not display drivers.

Still occurring - this needs a fix.

This feature will be fixed by the new editor in Version 2.0 of the Xwidget IDE.

Marked the Request as CLOSED.

This bug has actually been fixed in 1.9.3 of Xwidget.

No it hasn't - it is back! - re-opening, it has nothing to do with Nvidia drivers, it appears to occur on all graphic driver types, tested on Nivida 8600M GT, Nvidia 8400M and Intel on board graphics as well as others.
