Eclipse editor tabs stop rendering sometimes
I have an odd issue where eclipse editor tabs aren't rendering for me sometimes. the window title changes to reflect I've selected a new tab, but the content does not paint. Closing a tab or minimizing the window usually resolves it. Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

I've only used eclipse for a short amount of time but I found that it froze/crashed quite a bit, was there anything in particular that you were doing at the time that the window stopped rendering?
In the end I decided to just use Kate and compile from the commandline - Kate's syntax highlighter is pretty good and the whole thing seems snappier - probably because Eclipse is also doing some clever things that I don't understand in addition to syntax highlighting.
Which version of Eclipse are you using and where did you get it? Is it from the repository, or have you installed Google's bundle for Android development? -
Sorry for the lack on info. It's the kepler version, J2EE package, direct from eclipse.org. Kate isn't an option as I'm using necessary custom plugins for development aids. this usually happens when I open a new tab.
One more thing to note, I start eclipse with LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 so the scrollbars don't appear over the markers.Comment

No worries, I was just curious really. Unfortunately, I don't actually know what to do about your problem, but hopefully someone else will know!
Have you tried disabling the scrollbar option to see if you still get the rendering problem? It might help pinpoint the issue.Comment
