Vertical bar appears while editing SQL

See original GitHub issue

On Ubuntu 16.04, with DBeaver Community Edition version 5.1.4, I have begun to see a vertical scroll bar that appears in the middle of the editor when I press Enter, from after the cursor to the bottom of the editor, that hides whatever content follows the new line.

This wouldn’t be so bad, except when I press Enter in the middle of a long query, for instance, to add another join clause, the bar hides the rest of the query, and the only way I’ve found to get the hidden part of my query back is to Undo (Ctrl+Z) my last change.

This has been happening with both Postgres and MySQL databases. I don’t think it is specific to the database vendor.

I have attached a file showing a query to information_schema in MySQL. I thought about adding more than one picture to demonstrate, but if you hit Enter in the middle of the query, it just looks like that’s all you have written as yet, so an additional picture wouldn’t seem to help illustrate.
