I do not claim to understand the code, but could this be due to the relatively new 'kerning' stuff? Try this out. Select one or more text entities and open the properties dialog for text. In that, change the orientation to be vertical. Do you see your text now? I think you would :) It has been like that for around 10 days now.
Yes the text appears on the canvas but all superimposed on one space. It is correct on the text dialog preview.
The same happens if you set the orientation to vertical in the text dialog and make that the default setting. Then you can type and the text appears and superimposes on the canvas.
