Multiline selection not visible after MacOS 26.2 update

[snigg]

It seems that after I updated MacOS to Tahoe 26.2 the IDE does not show selected text if over multiples lines correctly. This is a nightmare to work with, as it does not show selected text and can make you delete (overwrite) lines while editing.
Anyone else? Is there a setting to fix it?

Any update on this? I have seen with the ticket ID this already has been raised last year. It is very annoying to use the IDE this way.

Hello @snigg 

Yes, I agree with you that this issue is very annoying. However, macOS 12.6.2 was published on December 12, 2025
(link: https://developer.apple.com/news/releases/?id=12122025c).

STM32CubeIDE 2.0.0 was released on November 18, 2025, and the ticket was escalated on 2025-12-30. We are doing our best to correct this behavior as soon as possible.

Its been more than a week and there is still no update. What is the timeline?!

[snigg]

ST, please take down the note you support MacOS and or set STM32CubeIDE to legacy status. You seemed to have invested in a Visual Code Studio integration of the STM32 stuff, so is this now the way to go? Could you at the very least be transparent in your strategy?!

Same issue here, please provide update.  Frustrating to say the least.

It is really annoying - frustrating.

 

I also filed a ticket. Lets hope they will fix it. Or otherwise I'll buy other microcontroller from a different manufacturer.

VSCode does not have the nicer debug facility.
