Unable to edit files from time to time in PyCharm

The PyCharm version is 2020.3.3, but this problem also happened in a previous version.

The IDE does not allow editing files at random. And this keeps happening very often.

The problem is only with editing files, scrolling and cursor movement works.

To enable editing again, I need to restart PyCharm.

What could be the problem? How to deal with this?

Do you have Tools | Vim Emulator enabled by any chance?

Are there any other custom plugins installed?
What OS do you use?

The OS is Fedora 32. The material theme plugin is installed, but nothing else apart form that.

To make sure it's not causing it, could you disable that plugin, restart PyCharm, and let me know if the problem reproduces?

I've uninstalled all plugins, including the default ones. The problem still occurs.

 

Upon checking the log files, I found that this warning might be concurrent with the appearance of the problem:

WARN - com.intellij.ide.IdeEventQueue - Too many mouse clicks (14)!!!

Huh, interesting.
Could you attach the idea.log file to the ticket I created for you? I'd like to look into it myself.
