That was not the problem but as it turns out you did point me in the right direction.

I had not looked at (never mind changed) my calibre settings for at least 5 years and completely forgotten that calibre has its own mechanism allowing the user to set the UI font-size and font-family.

What actually happened is that some of my settings were somehow corrupted and since I the problem occurred about the time I upgraded to 3.47.1 I suspected it might somehow be related.

My calibre Look & Feel screen had 'verdana 12pt' instead of the original 'verdana 6pt'…

Another settings on that same screen that was reset or corrupted was 'extra spacing between rows…' that I set at the maximum negative value of -20px… it had simply vanished.

After I cycled calibre I also noticed that the top window where you get to see the covers was not showing. Something quite useless of course… but that I honestly couldn't do without because it gives calibre its character!

Thanks for prompt response…
