I have a laptop with a NVIDIA Corporation GM108M [GeForce 940MX] (rev a2) graphics card, using NVIDIA Driver Version: 381.22.

Recently I have been having issues with the screen rendering on all programs. For instance, when typing into a web test box (like this) the characters are not getting displayed until either a delay or losing focus.
Also if I double click on a word (to highlight it) the edges goes blue (to show word is selected) but the middle part under the mouse cursor does not.

As the example below, double click on the word highlight and only the left couple of characters have highlighted, the area under the mouse is uneffected.

UPDATE: This problem seems to be software related and only occurs in certain programs like Chrome, so may not be a hardware/setup issue

Do you use default theme and icon pack? – BlueManCZ Sep 14 '17 at 17:00
@BlueManCZ I use KDE defaults – Rooneyl Sep 14 '17 at 18:50
Did you try change cursor theme? – BlueManCZ Sep 14 '17 at 19:41
Did you try disabling hardware acceleration inside Chrome's settings? Like this – Maxattax Sep 15 '17 at 14:55
Try this command
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-381/bin/nvidia-persistenced /usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced

It worked for my Nvidia 940mx.
