Whenever I cancel out of any of the popup menus (for example Recent files dialog or similar), the caret in the editor disappears. I need to click somewhere in the editor to get it back.

I am using keyboard shortcuts mainly using Ctrl-Shift. For example, Ctrl-Shift-A to Enter action dialog.

I then press Esc key to get out of the popup dialog.

Does anyone have any idea of what this could be? Not sure if it is a Gnome, Ubuntu or Idea problem.

Example enter image description here

This is an IntelliJ Idea regression bug and will be fixed in 2018.1.5.
