[SOLVED] strange writing at the top right of firefox, I can not remove it

[luca72]

hello everyone, for some time now, a strange and small wording has appeared at the top right of the firefox screen, with written in red and yellow: "fps, blit - vsync on" (it doesn't read very well) I can't understand how it appeared, and how to remove it, thanks

Hello, any chance of a screenshot? A picture would make all the difference here...

[sleeper12]

You might need to turn Vsync off. I don't have Cinnamon, but maybe the solution here will help:

hello, you are right, in fact I made a screenshot.png, I just don't remember how it loads on the forum, as an attachment it is too big

Host the Image over on Imgur.com

that is where I store all of my images, then you can use the rimg Button on the top right side of the editor to post the link into the forum

hello, on another occasion, I had inserted it in the body of the post, I just don't remember how I did it, do you know how to do it?

Yes,

you MUST have the MOUSE CURSOR positoned at the EXACT point that you want the Image to show up.

e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook position image here

e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook


That image is too large to stay 'inline',

so here is a 2nd test with an image of 40x40 pixels

e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook

Ikea Cake 40.jpeg (10.49 KiB) Viewed 846 times

e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook
e.g. goobledygook

well, it did NOT stay "inline with the text"
but, at least you can see, you must position the Mouse Cursor where the Image must go

I understood, it was too big, I reduced the window, the writing is in the upper left corner
