Silver theme only, correct?

It is just the silver theme - but that still will cause problems for people like me who prefer that viewer. So although I take your point - it is not a resolution.

@Aki - what you are seeing is a different bug, this was just the bottom of the text missing, not the text completely invisible.

Since I've updated my graphiccards drivers to the newest version, the problem is solved for me.

But I just wanted you to know, that the old issue with "triangle glitches" appeared again (since I updated the drivers - see VWR-3258)
luckily there's a workaround by disableing the OpenGL Vertex Buffer Objects

I believe some screenshots in VWR-13490 are actually the problem which is described here (while other are another one

)

The new release candidte today has not improved the bug - if anything it has got worse, on both classis and silver skins.

I had this on 1.22.11 with an Intel 945 graphics chipset laptop, but it's become fixed for me on 1.23. It looks like whatever fixed it for me may have broke it for others (or others iff they're on old drivers?).
