[SOLVED] Strange glitch in Eclipse code editor
Hello,
recently I installed Eclipse Neon.2 (eclipse-common + eclipse-cpp packages) with GTK3 (before that I've been using Mars with GTK2) and observe a strange glitch in the code editor. When the Return key is pressed at the end of a line with text, this text (the copy of the whole line) appears at the next new line and then in a half a second disappears. In previous Eclipse versions (with GTK2) such behaviour wasn't observed.
Could someone provide a clue why such glitch can take place and how it can be remedied?
Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED] Strange glitch in Eclipse code editor
For me Eclipse always had some glitches when using GTK3. Neon also has some windowing problems, especially within Wayland.
So I am still running it with GTK2.
There I have no problems at all.

Re: [SOLVED] Strange glitch in Eclipse code editor
Could you advise what the simplest way to get Eclipse with GTK2? Custom compile? Downgrade to Mars? Some existing AUR package?
