Hi,

First make sure your Windows Update has all the latest patches. Also make sure 
your video card driver is as up-to-date as possible.

In this version 
https://www.dropbox.com/s/uvtydcja8p4t25g/Mnemosyne-2.4.1-pre2-setup.exe?dl=0 
I've added a new command line option "--qt-opengl" which can be set to either 
'desktop', 'angle' or 'software', which you can play around with if you have 
display issues. (See e.g. http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-requirements.html)

You can try any of these combinations (although 'software' was the version that 
didn't work in the previous build), each one with or without the flag 
'--high-dpi-scaling'.

To repeat how to launch Mnemosyne with command line options, create a shortcut 
of Mnemosyne.exe, right click to go to properties and edit 'target' to read 
something like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mnemosyne\Mnemosyne.exe" --qt-opengl=desktop

Another thing you might try is playing around with the ClearType settings under 
Windows and see if that makes a difference.

Finally, PyQt version 4.8 is about to come out, which perhaps also makes a 
difference.

However, if none of these things work, I'm not really sure there is anything 
more I can personally do about this...

To give some background, Mnemosyne 2.4 switched from PyQt4 to PyQt5, which 
includes a whole new rendering backend and a new web widget (which is what we 
use to display your cards). With respect to your fonts changing, perhaps the 
font name you chose in PyQt4 gets interpreted as a different fallback font in 
PyQt5? You might try setting your font back and forth between a few options and 
see how it goes.

Cheers,

Peter

I just installed 2.4.1-pre-software-opengl.exe on my laptop (The one that had 
installation problems).

Installs OK, tips window is OK, but Mnemosyne window is blank. The menu buttons 
work and display menus, but the buttons themselves are hidden. You have to 
click where you imagine they would be to bring up a menu.
