Not only is the Effect tab showing missing letters. The timeline (and several other places I can't remember) also lacks letters. This happens with the AppImage version running on Fedora 36. However, the UI of the Flatpak version is fine.

Ah sorry, that should be Fedora 37...

Comment 3 Jim Henderson 2023-06-29 03:12:55 UTC

I am now using the latest normal release, 23.04.2, on an updated macos OS, Ventura 13.4.1, and the problem has gone away. Thanks Apple, or thanks kdenlive developers :-)

@HymanZXC, has an update resolved the issue for you?

Hi HymanZXC -- has any recent update resolved this issue for you? I have just added a comment that the display is now good for me, with new versions of kdenlive and the macos OS. Jim Henderson

Hi Jim,

Thanks for letting me know. I just tried the latest version of both AppImage and Flatpak and can confirm that those UI issues have been fixed.

Thanks developers, we can close this issue now.
