How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app

What happened?

I'm not sure exactly what's going on here, but this one workspace is re-rendering the screen wrong when I click into it. Based on timing, I think it might have to do with rendering the conversation tree because it suddenly jumps from normal to this about the time it's rendering that. However, this has only happened since 1.9.0. Once it occurs, things like resizing the window, or minimizing and reopening, do nothing. Selecting one of the conversation threads, all of which are correctly present and their titles rendered just fine, restores it to normal. It is temporary, cosmetic and fleeting, but an edge case with unknown root cause I thought I'd share.

Yellow boxes are my addition to the screenshot for privacy.

Are there known steps to reproduce?

Unfortunately no. I've deleted my embeddings from this workspace and cleared the system prompt. I'm not sure what the root cause is to be able to intentionally induce the behavior. However, I am happy to help if you list some things to try.

I was struggling to determine what the issue was until I saw the the entire app is actually messed up and boxed in the white frame. I have never see this before. What OS are you on?

This one is Windows 11 native. I went through and deleted all the 37 threads on that workspace, no change popping back and forth from the odd white border and back when I'd click a thread. I finally did a /reset on the default and bam, no problem anymore. I saved the chat logs first so I'll dig through the json and figure out if an odd character got in there or what.
