Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3198.0 Safari/537.36 Example URL: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open any page with a text box. 2. Add enough content so the text box needs to scroll 3. If necessary, scroll the textbox. What is the expected behavior? Content appears normally. What went wrong? Content is a bunch of black, and occasional repeats of the graphics on the page. Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes Is it a problem with a plugin? No Did this work before? Yes previous dev version Does this work in other browsers? Yes Chrome version: 62.0.3198.0 Channel: dev OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2) Flash Version: This is a flag issue, I realize. But it is a useful feature that got borked. Cleartype-style text often looks bad, and is a big deal to many, many users. Plus the bug is just weird. Why would it cause that? It's likely this bug affects other things, or will down the line.

Please confirm that this only happens when LCD text is disabled? The reproduction steps in the initial report do not include that step.

The LCD test flag in chrome://flags actually controls compositing of content that would otherwise break LCD text. So the problem is due to the scroller being composited. There were a host of bugs like this and maybe it has been fixed. Please check Chrome Canary. You can install it without affecting your Beta install.

I'm closing for the lack of response, and #6 indicates it might have been fixed. Please add comments if this still reproduces on Canary.

Sorry, I didn't get any emails on this. It does seem to be fixed now. Though I did upgrade my GPU. This wasn't GPU specific, was it? |
