    Have you tried logging is as a new user with default Gwenview
    config?

    No : why would that be expected to help ?

    Because it would revert to a default config, instead of trying
    changes one at a time to see if anything makes a difference. If it
    doesn't happen with a new user, you know it is a configuration
    issue.

    Or a caching issue. Some libraries cache stuff in a per-user cache
    (often in ~/.cache). There's one Qt application upon which I rely
    where the UI occassionally stops rendering. It worked fine if you
    logged in as a new user, but wiping your config, logout, reboot, etc
    and allowing it to default didn't help. I actually switched over
    completely to a new use account once to avoid the problem. Later, I
    figured out all I had to do was "rm -rf ~/.cache/<something>".
