Code appears line by line when scrolling, second half of view is empty, but code is actually there

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it
Steps to reproduce: open a relatively long file and scroll around.
The bottom half of the "code view" is empty. When scrolling, code gradually appears, filling more of the bottom half. Then randomly stops appearing, so the bulk of the visible code scrolls to the top while the bottom fills with empty space. Then more of the code starts appearing again. See screen recording.
When the bottom half is empty, the code is still there: I can select it, select & highlight variable names, red squiggles are there too. So it could be a graphics issue. Unfortunately I have an old NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M, so that's not good. However, absolutely no other text editor and no other app behaves like this for me, only Zed. VSCode, SublimeText, Jupyter, the terminal, Safari, everything works fine and has always been working fine except Zed. In fact, I've never ever encountered this kind of glitch in any other app before. Thus, perhaps the GPU isn't so old that it can't render text properly...

Hey, thanks for the report. This seems to be related to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/6853 ; both issues have a bit older Macs as well.
Couldn't find that issue myself, sorry for the duplicate. BTW, it could be useful to automatically attach a line like "iMac 21.5-inch, Late 2012" to the environment if possible, perhaps along with the GPU specs. Currently I put it there myself.
I'm also facing this same issue. I'm on MacBook Pro (Mid 2012). Processor: 2.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1 GB + Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB
Really appreciate any help on this, would love to use Zed on my machine! 🙏
I also have been getting this odd issue when scrolling through text, the bottom half disappears, I have highlighted the missing text at the bottom to show it actually exists.
Here is the same image with a different file to show its not isolated to one file, i am just browsing the bootstraps most recent codebase.
This is the system i am using its a 2014 macbook pro.
Just to surface this, there's a user experiencing this on Sonoma:
- https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8056
I'm having the same problem. I'm on BigSur, MacBook Pro mid 2014 and Geforce GT750M
I keep coming back hoping there is a fix. It definitely has something to do with my NVIDIA GPU on my mid 2014 MacBook Pro (11,3 / Metal2 / Kepler). I don't see the issue when switching to integrated GPU on Sonoma: 14.4 - OCLP: 1.4.2 but after a while I can report that there are some strange artifacts occurring when scrolling.... missing letters.. Zed is basically unusable for myself.
Today, i had to stop using Zed all together, as letters started disappearing immediately after the latest Zed 0.127.3 update. 😥
Same bug on macOS 10.15.7 With zed version 0.132.3
I noticed that it does that on the window size or for sure on characters count displayed in the window
