Text / font problems

[fatiguingsummary 0]

Cura 4.5.0. OS is a fresh install of Debian 10. Downloaded and ran the appimage.

 

A number of problems with text / fonts exist. The tops of a lot of text is cut off, and the "Start G-code" and "End G-code" text appears as just boxes. Seems like just the preferences dialog box is affected, but it's a pretty crucial component of the application.

 

Please see attached screenshots.

 

I do see a number of errors in the terminal such as:

Fontconfig warning: line 5: unknown element "its:rules"

No other font issues exist with any application on my system.

Any solution to this? Still having this problem unfortunately.

 

Thank you.

The bad vertical alignment of the text in the printer settings dialog has recently been fixed for a future release.

 

The squares in the gcode text areas are an ongoing issue as discussed recently in https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/2452

I am having the same issue but I have the latest version.

 

Edit: This started after installing the octoprint plugin, likely unrelated

I have the same problem with the appimage 4.8.0....

No problem with the arch-linux's version on the repo.
