Video showing the problem

In Impress, when you click a text object to edit its text, the text wiggles right/left and some rows move up/down.

This problem happens with various fonts and in almost all my documents.

See attached video for an example of the issue (comparison between Impress and Power Point). Notice that in Impress (first part of the video) some characters wiggle to the right and some rows are moved down, whereas in Power Point there's no wiggling.

I do see some rows move up/down (it' caused by the frame border appearing/disappearing). There should be a report about this somewhere

No wiggling glyphs on macOS

I only see changes in the lines, not between characters. There is (at least) bug 89060 which was originally about characters, but was changed to be about lines.
