I have noticed the same problem. I thought the problem was in my code.
Is there any way to prevent this? Does any other widget have ability¨
to show long text? I use text widget to display log messages from
several
applications, and I have limited the buffer size to 10 KB. The buffer
operates with FIFO principle. The widget starts to scroll back and forth
when
the buffer becomes full first time.
