MATLAB find text and suggested completions are glitching in editor.

Hello,

I am running MATLAB R2024b and am running into the following issue when I seach my scripts using "cmd + f"

In the top right corner where the seach bar usually is, I get this. If I hover my mouse over it, the seach bar sporadically appears and disappers. This glitch also occurs if I generate the search bar by clicking on the "find text" icon in the tool bar.

I am also getting the following behavior when MATLAB suggests autocompletions to me:

Thank you for your suggestions in advance! For context, I am running MATLAB on macOC Ventura 13.4.

Hi @Paul,

Is this glitch continuing, even after restarting the running MATLAB session?

Also, meanwhile, you can try 'Stop New Desktop' to revert to the previous MATLAB Desktop, if the issue persists even after restarting.

Hi @Subhajyoti, thanks for the reply! It is persisting after restarting MATLAB.

I am not seeing the 'Stop New Desktop' option--am I missing it somehwere?
