https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42748 Bug ID: 42748 Summary: Flickering, disappearing text in Steam client user interface (DirectWrite enabled) Product: Wine Version: 2.4 Hardware: x86 URL: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/Steam Setup.exe OS: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, regression Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: dwrite Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: gyebro69(a)gmail.com CC: bunglehead(a)gmail.com Regression SHA1: 89d074a3fc063722fe45a3148ee3b55cb473d11d Distribution: --- Created attachment 57756 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=57756 plain terminal output As I move the mouse across the user interface in Steam client, or activate a menu item or scrolling through the installed games' list in the library, text in the user interface periodically disappears and reappears. Also can be reproduced in the login window: as I begin typing in the input fields, text disappears then reappears. Disabling dwrite.dll or launching Steam with 'no-dwrite' parameter is a workaround. Reproduced in fullscreen and virtual desktop mode and with running Steam in Windows XP and Windows 7 modes. Reverting the following commit fixes the problem: commit 89d074a3fc063722fe45a3148ee3b55cb473d11d Author: Nikolay Sivov <nsivov(a)codeweavers.com> Date: Thu Mar 30 15:07:00 2017 +0300 dwrite: Allocate glyph buffer once per run rendering pass.
