Print Preview Pan not working

I've recently re-installed Windows 10 and afterwards found that Print Preview Pan didn't work. I restarted QCAD and it did work, but has bow stopped working again. Restarting doesn't fix it.

Windows 10
Version 3.21.3.0 (3.21.3)
DXF attached

Works for me. However - can you test the modified drawing and tell us if the issue persist or not.

Tested again with the same QCAD version - works still like a charm.

Just to be on the same page: Do you try to pan the drawing or move the Paper position? Please elaborate precisely how you launch and use the tool. Thanks.

It's an intermittent problem. Sometimes closing QCAD and relaunching clears it.

I launch QCAD from the W10 start menu. I usually scroll to Recent Files to find the one I want, or begin a New File.

Usually, when wanting to Print, I open the Print Preview, scale the drawing down until i can see the white paper sheet on top of the greyed out drawing, then use the scale and portrait / landscape controls to adjust the paper. Then I hit the Pan button and try to grab the paper and drag it to where I want it.

When it won't work, the drag is unresponsive.
