Please always specify the exact version, see wiki/ReportingBugs which explains how to do this and why this is important.
Can you please include the full and exact commands that you used to start this particular desktop environment? (xpra start-desktop --start=...
)
Resizing windows sometimes leaves artifacts, as shown in screenshots.
Does the problem go away if you run the server with:
XPRA_SCROLL_ENCODING=0 xpra start ...
Is your browser window using any form for zooming?
I will try to reproduce, but probably not before next week.

Inlined screenshots:
- popup menu font too big for menu entry size:
Tested again with the latest beta builds, and I'm not seeing any visual artifacts. In fact, the feature works surprisingly well.
Please try:
- connecting with a regular python client, can you reproduce any font problems with that one?
- use a different browser - does it make any difference?
