this sounds like a rendering glitch not concerning Bear directly but macOS. Are you using Bear’s default font? Is your Mac set with multiple language support?
You can check in macOS settings app > General > Language and Region.
The 2 issues sound odd, has something happened system-wise before these events? (update, time machine restore, …)
Are you using the pro features (Bear Pro)?
I see graphical glitches similar to this last one on a very regular basis. For instance, after I saw it in the forum this evening, here’s a partial screenshot of mine.
I’m glad you pointed it out. I did check for updates in the app store, both before my initial screenshot post and before my reply to you. I didn’t look at the version listed at the right of the app store, but both times I just had an “Open” button and not an “Update” one.
However, I checked it a third time now and I do see 2.1.6 and can update it. Hopefully that will help.
Yup, my particular issue seems to have been fixed in between 2.1.4 and 2.1.6. Or at least I haven’t seen it this week. It was intermittent, but I was seeing it more than once a day before, and I haven’t seen it since the update.
