Request for testing: CEF panels in 9.10
Summary
In the 9.10 beta cycle, we'd like to ask our testers to pay special attention to any loading or rendering problems in the Home page, Factbook, Notes, and other panels that are shared with the web app.
Background
Most of the Logos desktop interface is rendered "natively" by the operating system. However, there is a growing list of tools that are shared with the Logos web app, which are necessarily written in HTML. We use the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) to render that UI.
As we do periodically, we've upgraded the version of CEF we are using in the desktop app. We don't anticipate any problems, but we want to be sensitive to any side effects that might arise.
What to look for
Here are the panels that use CEF:
- Home
- Notes
- Factbook
- Sermon Builder
- Sermon Manager
- Atlas
- Charts
- Canvas
- Faithlife Assistant
- Workflow Editor
- Interactive resources
As well as some parts of:
- Media tool
- Text Comparison
- Bible Browser
- Courses tool
Please be on the lookout for and report any issues like:
- Panels suddenly going blank or refreshing unexpectedly
- Incorrect scaling, especially on high DPI monitors and/or second displays
- Unresponsive UI elements, like buttons or context menus
- Performance issues like slow loading times or choppy animations
- Any of the above after the panel has been open for a long time, and/or after the machine has gone to sleep
As always, thank you very much to our beta testing community!

Bumping for the attention of the beta testing community ... this requires some genuine concentration on testing.

I tested the Atlas, roughly half an hour.
No issues.
Actually I was surprised how well it works, have not used Atlas for a long time.

I used the Media tool - I reported one problem of a missing field which may or may not be related.

For a long time (over a year?), I have had issues with some guides. There are occasions when I have to click about 1-2 cm above a link in a Guide in order to select the link. This issue occurs intermittently. When it happens, then it stays this way until I restart Logos. But even this does not guarantee that it works again.
I thought it was my particular Mac. But it still happens after I purchased a new Mac.
Am I the only one with this issue? Maybe I need to do a recording next time it happens.

My issues are different. I will try to record it next time it happens.

I am having a problem with the passage guide. Here's a screenshot:
I'm running Windows 10 Pro on an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X desktop with an NVIDIA RTX 3070 graphics card. I'm using Logos 9.9.0.0016. The last time I reported this, I had my screen scaled to 125%. This last screen capture is after resetting the scaling to 100%.

Hi EastTN,
I've replied to this thread asking for more information. Since these changes were made on 9.10, and you are reporting your issues on 9.9.

Got it - sorry for the distraction.

I don't think "double vision" is related, so I posted it elsewhere, but just in case:

I know that Linux is not supported officially by Faithlife, but figured I'd post this as we are working on it - in case it may lead to issues for Windows users down the road.

Starting with Logos 9.10, we've seen the issue listed here and the first post contains a video of the glitch. All Logos versions prior do not have the issue.
Double clicking the Menu Header allows access after the first use.
