P: Share Button Blinks Continually (23.4.1)

I have an issue with a blinking 'share' button (see attached video) and it's driving me nuts. (imac 27", OS Monterey, Photoshop 23.4.1) My solution at the moment is a piece of paper with tape to cover it, but I'm hopeful there will be a better solution for this bug.

 

Please help!

Yes, disable „Auto Activation“ in RightFont preferences stops the blinking.

It is a problem with RighFont in my case. Closing it, makes the flickering go away.

Updating the Photoshop version does nothing.
Resetting the preferences doesn't do anything.
Posting in this forum is useless.
And the blinking drives you insane after two hours of working in Photoshop.
It may be time to take a closer look at Affinity Photo.

As a follow-up, here's a screen capture. Notice how it also causes the active tool cursor to switch back and forth to a standard cursor. Blinking stops during actual tool use, then resumes when tool is released.

I've been reading this for a few months, standing by for others to uncover a solution, but I've had enough. Same behavior here in spite of all the troubleshooting tips previously mentioned. Disruptive blinking behavior persists with the 24.1.1 update installed 10 days ago on a 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max running macOS Ventura 13.1.

STILL FLASHING.  Updated to the latest 24.1.1.  Have reset prefs, reinstalled, etc.

 

And now I seem to no longer be able to enter manual values in the Type palette.

@CShubert   CC allowed me to update to v24.1.1. No change in the blinking Share button and tools.

Yes. Clicked the Check For Updates rotating arrows. No result/response.
Have auto-update on as well. Some argue not to do that. But I like to be bleeding edge with updates.
