Funny dots in viewer

dan2the6th · 11-08-2019, 08:39 PM

Ever since version 4.0, the book viewer has had tiny black dots along the left margin. They seem to be random. This is not a major issue by any means, but it seems like it ought to be corrected. I have attached a screenshot of the viewer with 3 of the dots circled in green. Most pages seem to have zero to three of these things.

That looks like a rendering issue witht he graphics drivers in your system. Try updating them if possible that might help. Other than that I dont really have any advice to offer, as actual rendering is done by Qt WebEngine not calibre itself.

Well, it's a Dell laptop, and Dell normally supplies new drivers as they are released. But I'll check around. Thank you.
