I think I mentioned this before on the Community, but I don't remember what the consensus was. I found that when highlighting text past the edge of the terminal in NetBeans, the system gets completely messed up where Firefox, Chrome, and a few other apps like Shotcut don't update window contents until resizing the window. Restarting make everything work again.
Steps to reproduce:
- Install NetBeans C++ (their jar installer works fine)
- Create a new C++ Application
- Write incoherent code that creates an error, and when compiling, highlight the error to the right, past the edge of the window. The system should freeze for a few seconds.
- Firefox should now behave weird and if not, try step 3 again.
Note: I cannot replicate this behavior using NetBeans on other distros.
