Scrollbar not moving when resizing

thiago.eec · Yesterday, 08:55 AM

Windows 11 25H2
Calibre 9.9.104

I don't really know exactly when this started, but it was a few versions ago (not related to the Beta). Everytime I increase the Viewer window size, the scrool bar remains fixed and the text does not reflow. It also happens if you open the TOC and click a link.

If you use the mouse wheel to scroll to another page, then it fixes itself. Reloading the book also does the trick.

Doesnt repro for me on Linux travelling so cant test windows.

Ok. I added a screenshot to ilustrate.

I'd appreciate if someone else could test on windows and let me know if its reproducible.

I can reproduce. More noticeable when maximizing the viewer.

On side note: I can't tell when this started, but I sense the viewer taking sometimes 3 to 4 seconds to start. Once it starts, it's fast to load. Tested on a simple library, no custom columns. I believe this initial delay was less perceptible. Could this be related to the Lookup panel doing some network activity on startup, like some online status test?

I cannot reproduce on Windows 10, calibre portable 9.9.104, with factory settings.

Probably needs to have a common set of config settings, I guess.

I have the attached for Page Layout, but there are probably several other settings involved. I use Paged mode.

lookup isnt loaded unless its open and even if it is loaded its asynchronous.

Someone that can reproduce it attach the viewer-webengine.json file from your config directory (review it to check it doesnt contain anything you dont want shared first -- mostly the list of recently opened books).

@Comfy.n - nuke the "standalone_recently_opened" block, send it to me, and I'll try it in my vanilla portable.

Attached my revised webengine json.

Yeah, with that viewer-webengine.json — after dismissing the extra child windows — I get the behaviour described. Tap page down and it straightens itself out.

Dropped it into my 8.16.2 portable - no problems, text adjusts to window size immediately I resize.

What would be more true to reflect my settings would be if the Lookup panel was enabled in the JSON I sent. I had disabled it for tests and forgot to re-enable it.

Comfy.n - with your viewer-webengine.json I got the problem in 9.9.104, with the child windows you had enabled - ToC, Find etc, AND with those child windows disabled. So, I don't think its related to child windows.

We need Diego to tell us which bells and whistles he has enabled - TTS, AI, Lookup etc - I don't have any of them enabled.

This is my 'viewer-webengine.json'.
