You haven't said what version of WB you are using 32bit or 64bit?. I doubt it is related to a glitch in the software and more to do with your PC/Laptop and outdated drivers such as graphics. Try the following Press the Windows key + Ctrl + Shift + b this will force a refresh of the video display/adapter. If this doesn't resolve then check your video/graphics drivers for any updates.

The publishing functionality has remained unchanged for several years, so it seems unlikely that the recent update is the cause of the issue.

However, there may have been changes in other areas. For instance, you might have added larger files to the project or enabled server backup. When the software is processing large files or handling backups, it may temporarily delay screen updates as it prioritizes resource allocation.

Yep. This is what happened to me when I was publishing very large PDF files.

The solution was to disable publishing for those files since they only needed to be uploaded once.

It makes publishing so much faster.

It might just be the software struggling with larger files. If you have anything that doesn’t need to be re-uploaded, try disabling it during publish.
