You might have hit the "dashed line" rendering bug, which is due to be
fixed in 1.6.1. I can point you to the patch if you want to try and
rebuild and see if it fixes the issue.

I'm doubtful though, as the 4000 series logic symbol shown miss-rendered
in the preview doesn't have any dashes. I just reverted the "fix" I
referred to locally, and couldn't reproduce your bug.

This said - the image with the one resistor showing looks more like
there is an errant attribute - visible, but with no text (at least in
the "visible" part of the attribute). This often manifests by throwing
off the scaling of the whole page - as appears to be shown in that
screen-shot. (Or you might just have zoomed out, I don't know!).


You're on a German locale?

Try running gschem with "LANG=C gschem"

Is there any change in behaviour?


I'm afraid I'm running out of ideas.

In future, could you send screen-shots as .png rather than .jpg, as I'm
looking for pixel level clues to help identify the cause. JPEG artifacts
make that difficult.
