I have this too, on a Macbook just upgraded to Catalina. I see this also in EU4, which was otherwise unplayable with the latest update - this was just icing on that cake.

Did you find a resolution?

I recently reinstalled CK2 (as we no longer can play EU4...) and got this exact bug as well. I found a really simple workaround on reddit that fixed CK2 for me and from the response in the CK2 bug thread, it worked for others as well. I don't have Stellaris installed so I'm not sure if it will work but it's probably worth a try.

--> In settings.tex: set fullScreen=no and borderless=yes.

Best of luck.
