Editing Mode Glitching

Question

Whenever I enter edit mode in a Confluence knowledge article, the screen/interface glitches. Texts are randomly selected, the page scrolls up or down automatically, and elements flicker.

I've already tried the initial troubleshooting steps:

* Clearing the cache
* Using Chrome and Edge

However, the issue persists and only occurs when editing articles.

How do we fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey @Maarten I don't have any grammar or translation add-ons, or anything that interacts with text element in HTML. I don't see the glitch when I create a new page and start adding content. It happens when editing an existing page with too many things (tables, images, check boxes, etc.) is what I noticed.

Check whether you have an add-on for spelling checking in your browser. That was the issue for me. It causes interaction that is undesirable.

Together with Atlassian, we figured out the issue was the interaction between Confluence and a spelling checker add-on (like Grammarly). Try disabling such add-ons to see whether the issue disappears.
