    Hello there, I have an issue with Inkscape rendering rectangles, they appear broken on Inkscape unless I zoom in very close or very far away, the actual SVG isn't affected when opened on a browser. So far this issue only lies with an actual rectangle, other shapes don't have this behavior, even a polygon shaped like a rectangle are rendered correctly. This happens with any stroke width or color but renders normally when stroke is removed. Haven't really tested anything else apart from that (still relatively new to Inkscape)

    It's a fresh install of Inkscape on Windows 11 using the msi installer, but I did uninstall a previous version that could have lingering stuff that wasn't removed.

    Before proceeding further, I'd reset the preferences.Β https://inkscape.org/forums/questions/getting-back-to-square-one-and-starting-over-its-easy/

    Had reset preferences but that didn't work, although I managed to accidentally fix it by messing with the vertical and horizontal radius of the corners!
    I'm guessing I somehow created a rectangle with invalid radius properties and Inkscape used that as the default rectangle.
