What issue do you have?
I have a Dell Monitor S2721QS
I don't what exactly Joplin does, as soon as I do CTRL + P to open the search dialog, my monitor goes black (dark) for few seconds and then comes back for a second and then back again in a constant loop until I close the search window.
I'm not sure this is a problem with my monitor or something Joplin is causing.
The thing is no other app does this.
Wonder if anyone has experience anything like this, quite a puzzle.
It makes it impossible to do a search.
This is a longshot, but do you have an nvidia GPU with windowed mode gsync enabled? (enabling gsync for windowed can cause weird issues like flickering in some apps)
What happens if you open the search via the corresponding menu option instead of a shortcut? If that works ok, you could see if the keyboard shortcut for the search in Joplin can be changed and see if that helps.
Also, were you previously on Joplin 3.5.4 and if so was there an issue then? In 3.5.5 there was an Electron upgrade
It happens only when Joplin opens up a popup / window, with built in search, there is no issue.
I can easily recreate the issue with CTRL + P or when adding Tags, both of which open another window.
This has always been an issue with any version of Joplin, it’s not new or specific to a version.
I was hopeful with what @bwat47 suggested, but sadly that was not the case.
I made this change, and it’s no longer happening, at least for the limited tests I did.
Going dark used to happen within a second of opening the window, now I waited over a minute and it didn’t happen, I hop it works for you as well and continues to work.
