Looks like this is related to the new project selection dropdown. It constantly switches between "project name" and "miscellaneous files".
I did some tricks: rebuild symbol database, clear history, cache and temporary files, unload and reload vs project in solution explorer, restart studio, and blinking is gone.
Using 2537 right now.

Is there an option to remove/disable this dropdown from va nav bar?

Unfortunately no sign of any option to hide this at the moment.

Is the flashing fully fixed, or are you still seeing it sometimes? We have a couple of people reporting this flashing, so it wasn't just you, but I don't yet know the trigger, and cannot reproduce it so far. So if you have "fixed" it somehow that would be interesting to know.

I'm also having the issue, this should be absolutely urgent, as it makes me, and all other people regred having this. It makes the visual studio practically unusable, when is it going to be fixed?

I have found one way to reliably trigger the flashing. I have several solutions which have mirror copies. While the mirror copies are not identical, they contain mostly the same projects and files. I'm finding that if I open a file in the solution that i'm working on and then open the corresponding file from the mirror solution, I get a flashing navigation bar.

Hovering over any file's tab until its tooltip appears stops the flashing.

The problem is not completely solved for me yet. If I use Ctrl+I (Edit.IncrementalSearch), the first character entered is searched for. When the second character is entered, the search field loses focus and I continue typing at the position of the first character found in the text.

Same usage and problem for me. I rolled back to 2530 to resolve the issue.

I remove the ShortCut from Edit.IncrementalSearch and assign Ctrl+I additonal to Edit.Find. For me it's looks like it have now the same functionaltiy as the old Edit.IncrementalSearch. So I can use the current VA build.

I can reproduce it like this:
A solution is checked out in two places (A and B). Then open a file in solution from A and the same file from B. The display switches between "A project" and "Miscellaneous Files" about every second.

Apologies for this problem. I believe we have a fix coming in the next build for this, and have emailed you about this:
