i experience visual annoyances when editing in book view, as text reflows thens sometimes stray dots ( bits of characters?) get left in the book window . they vanish as soon as a force a window re-draw e.g. by resizing slightly.

could be a general issue with sigil's video driver or could be specific to my O/S win 7 64 bit , by graphics ( ATI + catalyst drivers)and/or my screen resolution 1920 x 1080 ?. I suspect it is sigil code though, as no other program that I have behaves like this.

I am pretty sure that the left behind bits are serifs - those below the line bits of some letters. by themselves thy look like specs of dust on the screen or unwanted .

tried a serach of forum for artifacts but no hits. is this a known issue ?
