The built-in OOB macro editor refreshes the editing pane whenever I select any text in it. In effect, the text would disappear and reappear from top to bottom, taking about half a second each time. If I hold and drag, this happens repeatedly as I move the cursor around. It's very annoying.
How can I get rid of this, please? As a workaround, if there's a way to edit the macros with an external editor (like Vim), I'd love to hear that, too. Thanks.

Re: Spontaneous screen refresh in macro editor
It is an OpenGL related problem.
My Nvidia type, OpenGL 4.5 version videocard often crashes (it flashes for a second, and I get an error message when I play a video - for example from the Youtube - and then the videocard works again. But if the LibreOffice runs in the background, then it crashes too (because it uses the OpenGL). When I restart the LO, the option for usage of the OpenGL will be disabled automatically, and the menus will flashes when I hoovering on them with the mouse. And the Basic editor flashes as you described.
And then I switch the OpenGL ON again, and all of functions work fine again.
It is a very annoying issue in the LibreOffice 5.x.x versions.
The LO4.4.7 worked fine (without the OpenGL function). The LO 4.4.7 used the GDI function.
