Opencpn 5.6 screen bug ?

Hi,
Had Opencpn 5.6 installed on my laptop (Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon) for a month, and working good actually.
Since yesterday (for some reason?), screen presentation has turned to the attached picture: chart now appearing in the lower left corner, and dowloaded O-charts unavailable despite still being on my disc.
Had Opencpn uninstalled and reinstalled, with no changes.
Has anyone an idea?

Cheers.
@ Opencpn developpers: many thanks guys for the huge work achieved yet. The whole application is absolutely remarkable

Try to start OpenCPN from the terminal using the following command

Code:
GDK_SCALE=1 opencpn

Hi, thanks for reply.
Open cpn opens in large scale with the command, but O-charts still not available.
By the way, had the attached error message (.pdf) Any clue?

Lastly, when restarting Open cpn, without GDK_SCALE=1 command, situation returns back to previous one.
Anyhow, thanks for your answer.

I don't understand what "opening in large scale" mean. What you posted in the PDF is irrelevant and safe to ignore.
Please post the OpenCPN logfile, so that we can have a look at your o-charts issue.

Re: Opencpn 5.6 screen bug ?

Hi,
Ocpn.log in attachment,
Regarding my previous post, sorry for misunderstanding when speaking about "large scale", I meant the map covered the whole screen rather than the lower left corner.
Many thanks for help.
PS: tried again to reinstall Ocpn, with no success regarding presentation. Is there any possibility to (cleanely) erase the previous Ocpn settings from computer?
