Badly displayed.

SUMMARY
When running KHelpCenter, the disposition of the word Page in the first section containing the KDE logo and the text "Start Page" gets misplaced.
After clicking the Table of Contents button it displays the text correctly.

I noticed this bug is only reproduceable by running khelpcenter directly, not when called by another application.
Can anyone confirm this?
Comment 5 John Hayes 2020-04-19 16:34:20 UTC
When I started Help from the menu the graphic was distorted. It looked like a newline was inserted between the words Start and Page with the horizontal line covering up most of the word Page
Comment 6 Yuri Chornoivan 2020-04-19 18:33:04 UTC
I wasted some time on this with no results. Somehow KHC (or rather its HTML engine) fails to calculate the size of the "title" for "Start Page" for the first time. But it is enough to go to the next page to fix rendering.

It might happen that this can be fixed with a one-liner in navigator.cpp but I do not know what this line is. :)

This bug must only be showing up with certain packages. I just checked it in 
OpenSUSE (Leap 15.1), Debian 10, and KDE Neon 15.8.2 (base package is Ubuntu 
18.04). It worked fine in all three environments -- there was no garbled image.
