LabVIEW 2024 Q1 BUG: When zoomed in, text fonts get wonky and it becomes impossible to click on certain portions of text

In LabVIEW 2024 Q1, I really love the ability to zoom in and out of the block diagram, however, when you zoom in, the fonts used to display text (esp. in string/path constants) is a little wonky.  For example, sometimes it appears to be using a condensed version of the font.  When this happens (and it happens to some degree at most zoomed-in levels), the position you click on with the mouse cursor is offset from where the cursor appears when you click.  This can get frustrating, as you always have to move the cursor over to where you clicked using the arrow keys, but more importantly, it means that it's impossible to click onto certain parts of the text (e.g. the beginning or end) at all, because to do so you'd have to click at a position outside the bounds of the object, which deselects it.

 

The selection of fonts is not necessarily the problem -- I recognize that a perfect match for every zoom level cannot be expected to exist.  However, the real bug is that the click position is not in sync with the selected font.
