WYGWAM “re-draw” lines in Chrome

Question

One of my clients is having major "re-draw" issues with WYGWAM while using Chrome (Mac):

The only way to temporarily lose the lines is to keep resizing the text area. Does anyone know a more permanent solution or reason why it's happening?

We're using EE 2.5.2 and WYGWAM 2.6.3.

EDIT: Just wanted to note that this is fixed in the latest version of Chrome (24.0.1312.52).

That looks suspiciously like an underwhelming video card. Do you know what sort of system they're using? In particular the graphic card. Does it occur in other browsers as well ? — stuartmcd69, Jan 9 '13 at 5:16
I see similar behavior in Chrome for Windows on my gaming PC (which has a Radeon 6850) and on my 5-year-old iMac. I don't see the same lines when using Safari. — ebarstad, Jan 9 '13 at 5:32
Well, that sort of points the bone @ chrome for some weird reason. — stuartmcd69, Jan 9 '13 at 8:28
Is this happening on freshly opened tabs or ones that have been open for awhile? — Anna_MediaGirl♦, Jan 9 '13 at 16:51
I get this too; it seems to be specific to Chrome: code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=143354 code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=140447 Possible workarounds: stackoverflow.com/questions/12021248/… — Mark Croxton, Jan 9 '13 at 18:22

This is a Chrome/Iframe/contentEditable bug that usually crops up when you set Wygwam to use your own CSS file.

You should be able to fix it by adding a line-height to your CSS.

Thanks Brandon. For what it's worth, I'm not using my own CSS with Wygwam. – ebarstad Jan 10 '13 at 3:48
