[Bug Report] Parts of letters from previous/next page visible when in paged mode

Vistego · 03-10-2020, 11:07 AM

In page mode, I am able to see small snippets of letters from the previous or next page. After ignoring it for a while I decided I better try to make a post about it, since I haven't seen anything about it in the forums. I've confirmed that it isn't font related.

Here are a view examples:

Does anyone have a potential solution for this? The best way to fix the problem at the moment is to read in flow mode, since that mode doesn't queue the pages up side by side.

What OS are you running? What model of video hardware? Are your video drivers all up to date?

OS/calibre version. Does it happen with all books? And that cant be text from a neighboring page, because there is a margin between pages, pages are implemented as CSS 3 columns with a gap. Most likely this is a rendering artifact. You can try disabling hardware rendering, see https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-debugging.html
