App version

2.9.1

Where did you get the app from

F-Droid

Are you using the "Parse full article" feature?

Yes

EDIT: I've let the default template answer here and was unable to find this anywhere in the settings, where is it supposed to be?

Android version

14

Device model

Motorola G84

Steps to reproduce

For example if we switch article style from another style to the compact one while holding the phone in portrait mode, the rendering is very weird. Then if we kill the application and reopen it, rendering is different and much more consistent.

Expected behaviour

It should directly render the way it's supposed to without having to kill and reopen the application.

Current behaviour

Some article style might need to restart the application completely to render the way they should. Maybe the same would apply between landscape and portrait, I don't know. I think further reports on rendering of the different article styles would need this to be fixed first.

Sounds like it could be related to https://github.com/spacecowboy/Feeder/issues/597

But I need more information. You say it's related to compact article style. What are your values for these settings:

  • Max lines
  • Show only title
  • Show thumbnails

A screenshot of the "weirdness" would also help

Sure, of these everything is still on default values, which means:

* Max lines

2

* Show only title

No

* Show thumbnails

Yes

How it looks after changing the article styles to compact from another style without restarting the application:

Same view after killing and restarting the application:

Note that the repro rate is not 100%, and that it seems to depends on the article style we switched from. Pictures on the right when rendering is incorrect also looks squeezed.

EDIT: Issue can also apply to other article styles, and I might have noticed other things I'd report issues for, but I think that one needs to be understood and fixed first to be sure about any other thing.

Looking at the images it really looks to be the same as https://github.com/spacecowboy/Feeder/issues/597

but good with the extra information
