This did not help.

For my config, it turns out that spacemacs out of the box can reproduce this.

1. Back up your .emacs.d
2. git clone https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ~/.emacs.d
3. cd ~/.emacs.d
4. git checkout develop
5. emacs
6. Pick all the defaults for the setup (picking VIM is important, it
may be that evil is an important part of the repro for this)
7. Let it install packages, you may need to SPC q q then restart emacs
to let it finish
8. SPC f f
9. Navigate to a directory that has images in it and press enter
10. Use j/k to select an image in the dired and press enter

I’ve seen it blank from the cursor to the end of the line, from the
cursor to the beginning of the line and the entire line. I don’t know
how/why it does one or the other. It only does it once per image. If
you have several images in a single folder you could reproduce it
multiple times.

Hopefully that helps.
