[edit] Oops, I meant to create this in Bug Hunt. Sorry. [/edit]

Something a little annoying is happening as of lately.

At some point during my work day, the current document I’m typing in stops displaying newly typed text. But I can continue to type, I simply can’t see what I’m typing. I have to click on a different document and back on the original one to see what I typed.

Fullscreen view works flawlessly, though.

I found this in the Console:

30/01/11 12:08:16 AM Scrivener[4371]  
-[KBLayoutManager \_fillGlyphHoleForCharacterRange:startGlyphIndex:desiredNumberOfCharacters:] \*\*\* attempted glyph generation while textStorage is editing. It is not valid to cause the layoutManager to do glyph generation while the textStorage is editing (ie the textStorage has been sent a beginEditing message without a matching endEditing.)

It’s not a huge problem, more of an inconvenience. I have to restart Scrivener and everything is fine. But my session target counter gets reset, and I like to know how much I’ve typed by the end of the day.

Running Scrivener 2.0.2 on Intel.
