I write mail to Thore today, with pointing out on that topic, but as weekends going on for now, he pretty possible out of net. Once he will read it , i am sure he will help with all the stuff (but if something will going wrong, i will make a BZ for sure)

ps. just in case , try to disable compositing. there was some problems with some gui elemetns redrawing when compositing is enabled, so worth of checking.
I switched compositing off and rebooted. That had no effect on the problem. Maybe I should have called the effect "flickering" to make it clear what is happening. Three other people have confirmed the problem and one spotted flickering of the YAM edit window column/line counter above the edit area at the upper right. When I switch back to my previous MUI directory (leaving the rest of update5 in place) there is no flickering in the YAM editor. Maybe hardware or graphics cards affect the severity of the problem because some people don't seem to notice the flickering. You have to type fairly fast into the YAM editor to notice a lot of flickering.

@kas1e
I did some more testing and I don't need to replace the entire MUI directory to stop the flickering. If I replace the Update5 muimaster.library (v20.2344) with my previous muimaster.library (v20.2336), the flickering in the YAM editor stops and the editor display is solid as a rock.

I guess my persistance paid off :-) Thanks for your attention to this matter. I thing it's important to keep major native Amiga applications working well. The issue is resolved.
