Title:
  gnome-text-editor 46.3 issues after upgrade to 24.04

Status in gnome-text-editor package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Problem with gnome-text-editor version 46.3 on ubuntu 24.04.2 x64
  (Noble Numbat).

  I upgraded the computer (in place upgrades) from ubuntu desktop 20.04
  LTS > 22.04 LTS > 24.04.2 LTS.

  The desktop computer has an nvida graphics card and I think wayland is
  using the version 470 of the nvidia driver.

  After the inplace os upgrades ended, the old reliable gedit was gone
  and instead I have gnome-text-editor .

  I pinned gnome-text-editor to the dash and start gnome-text-editor
  from the dash.

  But gnome-text-editor has two obvious problems that make it unuseable
  viz:

  (1) specifically when I open a plain ascii text file a few hundreds of
  lines long , after a couple of seconds the app window goes blank (even
  if no key is pressed), and can be restored by scrolling up/down. But I
  need to view the text without it going blank!

  (2) Some of the dialog-boxes (popup windows) have text that is not readable or is blank. For example, when
  I choose Menu (hamburger menu) > Preferences, the initial screen is mostly blank with some boxes indicating controls. If I scroll the slider on right-hand-side of popup window then some text becomes visible, but not all, so some controls are "invisible" and remain thus.

  Any suggestions for how to resolve this?
