Weird screen/mouse problem on Windows 10

[Jasper van Dorp]

I have a weird screen/mouse issue with Spyder 3 on Windows 10. The menu bar is missing, as are other parts of the Spyder window(s) near the border of the main window. However, even though the menu bar is missing I can still click menu items with the mouse, because it seems like the mouse is miscalibrated in the vertical direction. When I click on point (x,y) it seems to respond to a point that is multiple pixels higher than that (also in the editor window the mouse is off by approx 1 full line which is *really* annoying as you can imagine).

I have tried:

* Factory reset to default

* Auto high DPI scaling

Both to no avail. I am on a Dell XPS 15 with FHD screen, if that helps. Does anyone have an idea what is going on here?

Hi,

I think you need to close the Help pane and restart Spyder to fix this problem.


Cheers,
Carlos

Hi,

That did the trick, thank you so much! Did I miss a known bug?

Nop, I think this is Qt issue but we don't know how to fix it yet.

I just started having this issue, also on Win10.  Using Anaconda, Spyder 3.2.8, Python 3.6.5, Qt 5.9.4, PyQt 5.9.2.
This happened after the most recent Qt update, last week or this past weekend.  Hitting the F11 key, to maximize the
Spyder window, shows the entire window, but the menu doesn't work (not even Alt-F, for the File menu, for example).
I tried downgrading to Qt 5.6.0, but that causes Spyder to crash before opening.

Here is the output of 'conda info'

TIA for looking into this.  I really enjoy using Spyder, and use it daily in my workflow.
