I am using RStudio Version 1.0.143 with R version 3.4.1 on a Microsoft Windows 10 64 bit System. Until yesterday everything worked fine. But suddenly my Viewer does not display data frames anymore. It only shows blank rows and columns. I already reinstalled both R and R Studio without success. Also a randomly created data frame was not displayed. When using utils::View(a) a new window opens and the data frame including the data is displayed. I did not receive any error message and it started while working on RStudio, so not between any system updates.
I searched the web and found on entry with the same problem but without solution. What went wrong and how can I change it back to the normal setting?
I would be very thankful for any help. Best regards Sven

Try right clicking on a cell in the first column in your table view and choose inspect.
In the Web Inspector, scroll down to where it says
body {
font-family: 'Lucida Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', 'Lucida Grande', 'Segoe UI', Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
Drag your mouse over that and disable it. Your table values should appear again.
This is part of the gridstyles.css.
If that fixes it for you, consider editing that css file at C:\Program Files\RStudio\resources\grid\gridstyles.css
