Text Not Showing in Drawing

Rod
I've seen this in other messages, but my drawing will only display the drawing text as a rectangular box. It turned on by itself at some point and I have not been able to turn it off. The solution for other users was to turn off Draft mode. I am not in draft mode (I can toggle the draft button on an off and it does not change my drawing). Has anyone else come across this? I'm a new user to would expect it's a user error at some level.

I don't know if it's the same issue but on Fedora Linux recently all my texts disappeared. Eventually I found that I had to set the fonts path in Application Preferences...?

/usr/share/fonts/gnu-free

Hi, I've got the same problem after the command View | Redraw (Ctrl+R). All texts disappear and are replaced by rectangles.
Does it just refer to the currently used package? Do I need a newer one? Thanks

You may just try the newest Appimage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/librecad/files/Linux/LibreCAD-2.2.0-x86_64.AppImage/download

Check if it's not just the Draft mode issue.

Sorry for the wrong description of the problem. It occurs after the command View | Zoom Panning. The following command Redraw (Ctrl+R) does not help, there are still rectangles instead of texts.
Unfortunately, the same problem in the current version of AppImage. Old version of Librecad 2.1.3 @ Ubuntu works OK.

In this case it's a recently reported issue.
Please see GitHub issue #1577 for an explanation and a workaround.
