[BUG] Qownnotes window looks broken on Windows 10 #3005

Closed hakova closed 4 months ago

hakova commented 4 months ago

Expected behaviour

  1. A normal appearing window with menus, etc.
  2. Window management buttons like minimize, maximize and close to work.

Actual behaviour

  1. Please see QownnotesScreenshot
  2. None of those buttons work as expected.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Qownnotes and see the above posted image that doesn't look normal.
  2. Attempt to use window management buttons to see they are not working. The window can only be closed by right-clicking its icon on taskbar and choosing to close it.

Output from the debug section in the settings dialog

I cannot open the settings dialog since the application menu is inaccessible as seen on the image posted above.

Edit: Adjusting Windows compatibility to Windows 8 solved the problem. Right click QOwnNotes.exe and choose "Troubleshoot compatibility" then choose "Try Recommended Settings", which chooses Windows 8 compatibility, and solves the issue.

I've never seen such a behavior on Windows 10 or 11, I didn't even know that it is technical possible that it can look that way. Are you sure that now a 3rd party software or UI thing is interfering?

Can you please post the output from the Debug settings in the settings dialog? You just need to paste it here. And is there any useful log output if you enable the log panel (see Window / Panels)? Please make sure you also enable debug logging in the log panel by right-clicking on the panel and selecting Debug in Options. The issue dialog in the help menu can help you with all of that.

Thank you for your quick response. The problem is that thick window title bar is blocking all the menu; however, I was able to get to the settings dialog by Ctrl+, please see the redacted output below:

pbek commented 4 months ago

I can't see anything unusual... I don't think I can do anything about your issue. QOwnNotes doesn't have control over the title bar on Windows...

hakova commented 4 months ago

I understand. It was working as expected until about a week ago. I updated the QOwnNotes a couple of times since then and the problems started after that. It is possible that Windows/Microsoft has modified something during that time. I will leave this issue open if that is OK just in case someone else has the same issue.

pbek commented 4 months ago

Nothing UI related changed in the last weeks in QOwnNotes 🤔

pbek commented 4 months ago

Just tested again under Windows 10, everything looks normal...

hakova commented 4 months ago

It is on my work computer, which I don't have administrative rights to, and is managed by the IT department on a daily basis. It is possible that they may have installed something or modified a setting on their end. Thank you for troubleshooting with me. I will keep using it with Windows 8 compatibility, which gives me the desired view/behavior.
