This is really a weird bug and I tried all weekend to find a solution.
On my MacBook Pro (Retina display), I re-installed KStars v. 3.0, the system (macOS Mojave 10.14.2), and I logged under another user : to no avail.
Because the bug doesn't occur on my iMac (also Retina display), I transferred the app KStars, the folders kstars and the preferences from my iMac to my MacBook Pro : to no avail.
I changed the display resolution : to no avail.
Don't know what to think.

The bug is linked to KStars 3.0.0 running under macOS Mojave !
Here is another test on an erased SSD :
1/ Clean install of macOS High Sierra : no bug with KStars 2.9.8 and KStars 3.0.0
2/ Clean install of macOS Mojave : no bug with KStars 2.9.8, but bug with KStars 3.0.0
3/ The results are the same whatever to which computer I attach the SSD.

I would appreciate to know if another user is having the same bug .
Very simple to test under macOS Mojave :
- run KStars 3.0.0 with the profile "Simulators"
- capture a preview and click on the button "Show View 3D Graph" to select a star
- are the two windows "KStars FITS Viewer" and the Sky Chart enlarged ?

Hi Jean Claude,

I think this bug was a QT bug, but I think it has since been fixed.  It was definitely weird,

Thanks,

Rob
