Text Jittering and Overlapping When Typing Long Prompts

Open DinMon opened this issue 6 months ago • 4 comments

When performing quick and short searches, the WebSearchShortcut extension functions correctly. However, when typing longer prompts, such as those intended for the Perplexity.ai website, the text input field exhibits significant issues. Specifically, the text flashes, jitters, and at times, characters overlap, making it difficult to compose the prompt accurately.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open the WebSearchShortcut extension through PowerToys using command.
  2. Begin typing a short search query to observe normal behavior.
  3. Now, type a lengthy prompt (e.g., for Perplexity.ai).
  4. Observe the text input field for flashing, jittering, and overlapping characters.

Expected Behavior:

The text input should remain stable and characters should not overlap, regardless of the length of the prompt being typed.

Actual Behavior:

  • Text flashes and jitters.
  • Characters overlap, making it hard to read and edit the prompt.
