Did you change fonts in Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance
[21 May 2010 12:14] Jeffrey Pry
Nope... I just installed the application, fired it up and this happened.

Indeed, with default fonts texts are hardly readable at 50%.

Thanks for the bug report. At 50% zoom, the text is indeed unreadable, but I don't think there's much we can do in Workbench.
