| Feb 16 at 9:34 | comment | added | db48x | You’ve still got to narrow it down to something concrete. No way to fix it otherwise. It’s not some universal bug in Emacs that everyone has just been putting up with for years. It’s something that is affecting only you and your users. | |
| Feb 16 at 9:32 | comment | added | Gabriele | @db48x I write code for a team and the issue happens on other machines with different settings (Linux Distro, Emacs version... etc.). | |
| Feb 16 at 9:10 | comment | added | db48x | Well, like I said, the issue never happens here. Bisect your Emacs configuration, examine your window manager setup, try a different mouse, wait until a different phase of the moon, etc. | |

@db48x Since the issue is random in the GIF I give C-g to abort the function when it works in the right way. In the MWE the issue is "rare" but in the my normal setting the issue happens more frequently.

You could minimize this example a lot more by removing two of the three functions and corresponding menu items, removing the fontification in the modeline, etc. All of those appear to be extraneous details. That said, I cannot reproduce this. I click the menu item, I answer no until query-replace finishes, then hit enter when I see the final “function 1 executed” prompt. It is hard to tell what your gif is doing, but whatever it is must be caused by some other part of your Emacs config, or by the system you are running on, your hardware, etc.

I updated my question adding a new MWE and a GIF. I also updated my Emacs to 29.1.
