<![CDATA[Deformated text]]>I updated my Opera to the latest version 47.0.2631.39 yesterday. It became unusable after this update because it often deformates text on any website.
Here are some examples:
Example1
Example2

As you can see, the text is unreadable.

So far we seem to have seen that disabling opera://flags/#enable-gpu-rasterization seem to be enough to get this working without disabling whole Hardware Acceleration. Also issue seems to affect only certain AMD card configurations. As we can't reproduce locally it's hard for us to narrow it down.

Also if problem does occur for you could you check if it appears also on today released beta build (48.0.2685.7)?

I deactivated the hardware acceleration also, and everything is OK now. :party:

Besides, if it were a system-wide problem then other software should be affected, too, shouldn't it? On my system it's only Opera that shows this weird behaviour. All other browsers (I have Chrome, Edge, Firefox and IE in their latest versions) are working fine without that problem.

It looks like 2/3 of the letters are white, but each individual letter is still complete. The earlier posters were seeing partial letters. The blurry or partial letters might be solved by dealing with hardware acceleration and/or Cleartype settings, actual missing text should be something else.

It's almost as if there's some kind of white rastorization breaking out within the lines and characters of text but not affecting the page color bars or images.

It started a couple of days ago (cannot tell exactly when, but 16th seems legit), and therefore I registered with this forum to ask for help.

Has there been an automatic update recently, which I didn't notice, and which might be responsible for this?

Here's an example of what I'm seeing when entering this forum. http://i.imgur.com/KYBs2kM.jpg

Strange, users who previously reported blurry text were saying it is now clearer. I gather it doesn't work for everyone ... standard suggestions would be disabling hardware acceleration (or perhaps enabling it if you had to disable it previously) or tweaking the Cleartype settings in Windows.
