Terminus: Disappearing text

[kbrucej]

Version: 1.0.78
Platform: win32 6.3.9600
Plugins: altair, clickable-links, quick-cmds, relaxed-theme, shell-selector, theme-gruvbox, theme-hype, theme-windows10, title-control

Whenever I load terminus on Windows 2012R2 the terminals are blank. I can issue commands and the commands work but I can't see anything in the terminal. With .78, the text appears sometimes but always disappears when I move to another tab.
I primarily use PowerShell 5.1 and 6.2

I've tried every version after1.0.67 and have the same issue, 1.0.65 and 1.0.67 don't have the issue. I haven't tried anything earlier.

I got same issue here

[IgnusG]

Are there any errors in the developer console? (you can start it from the settings)

[chanon]

Whenever I switch away from a tab and switch back to it, everything disappears .. only the cursor is remaining.

Same Issue on Mac for me on latest release

Happened to me with the Frontend using xterm. No problem with hterm or xterm (WebGL)
On Alpha 81

[sburkett]

I was having the same issue as canon described above:

Whenever I switch away from a tab and switch back to it, everything disappears .. only the cursor is
remaining.

I was using a slightly older version of Terminus. I updated to the latest 1.0.81 alpha and the problem is still there, at least for me. Here is my term.

$ echo $TERM
xterm-256color

Some details for the newly created console:

Does everyone with the issue here use Powershell? Maybe it's related to that...?

[Jakob-em]

@reijin90 No I have the same problems with wsl...

[lazb]

Same here. (with clink)

When I switch tabs everything is black, only cursor is on screen. Then I hit enter to get the content back.

Same here.
Switching to hterm or xterm-webgl solves it for me.

Whenever I switch away from a tab and switch back to it, everything disappears .. only the cursor is remaining.

Same here. But when I move or resize the window, all previous lines are visible again

Same here too. The display is back when resizing the window.

Same here. How to solve this problem? I'm gonna crazy for this problem!

@Chr1s-T: as a workaround, try switching the frontend to hterm or xterm-webgl (Settings -> Appearance -> Frontend)
That solved it for me.

Thanks a lot! I chooes the xterm(WebGL) with the option "Enable font ligature" enabled, and the problem disappeared!
