Dear Maintainer,

When an image is opened in a new window, the new window content are
black. Zooming in or out the image appears.

Not certain how to debug.

Thanks for your report.

Are you on wayland? (You can find out by running

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

in a terminal).

Also, I see something similar if I run without "GPU acceleration via
Clutter library" - see preferences under "Image", "Use GPU acceleration
via Clutter library" - is that checked for you?

If I select to run without clutter, I see something similar to what you
see.

(I will forward this to upstream, but this could possibly be at least a
temporary workaround).

Dear Maintainer,

I see the same error.
I reply to this, because I think that I have additional information.

It appears in full-screen mode in the main window, too.

When I turn full-screen mode in the main window by mouse and context menu
or by [F11] keyboard key, it shows only black screen until zooming.

But in a strange way:
When I start geeqie, full-screen of the main window is OK.
Error in the main window full-screen appears after the first zoom 1:1 only,
not before.

I cannot turn on "Use GPU acceleration via Clutter library" in preferences.

I have Installed xserver-xorg 2:1.20.11-1+deb11u5 version.
