Hey guys, this is a known issue in the 12.30 track related to the new Skia Graphics Engine... I believe it was fixed in SR2 and later releases of 12.30, so if you are running the IR or SR1 release, this is what you will see. This is related to high resolution monitors only as well I believe.

Ah, and apparently it made its way back into 12.40 track, see the following article for that:

https://support.qlik.com/articles/000074528

I ran into this myself on my Surface Pro 3, and I cannot recall now if I managed to find a workaround or not to it, but the recommended solution in the article is to disable Skia and revert to the Microsoft GDI Plus graphics engine. Steps are in the article, same for 12.30 in this case if you are on it, but again, I think SR2 and SR3 should have fixes for it.

Regards,
Brett

Seems to be any kind of rendering-issue between Qlik, OS and your graphic driver. What happens if you switch to the external view or the zoom-factor or anything like that to enforce a new rendering?

I tried zoom in out but same result.
Also, If I copy on clipboard I can see tables clearly as well as exporting too.

Maybe something went wrong with the installation and a re-installation could cure it. Another possibility would be to play with the various graphic card settings and/or using a different driver or something similar.

Hello Brett,

I'm still experiencing this issue in v12.50.20400.0.
Any chance this will be fixed in one of the upcoming versions?

Thanks

Marco

Regarding to the mentioned setting within the linked support-post the setting of:

GraphicsBackEnd

should be disabled in 12.4 and higher but in 12.5 SR3 it's still there whereby I don't know if it has further an impact or not. You may just try it.

What are your resolutions of the monitors? What happens if you reduced them for max. HD and/or disabling any scaling within the OS respectively graphic driver?
