Hello! I understand that when you use the touch gesture to enlarge a page in the PressReader app on your Windows device using WebKit, the previous page appears superimposed on the left side. Let’s see how we can fix this.

First, a couple of clarifications to help me assist you better:
- Are you using the PressReader app directly on Windows, or accessing PressReader in a browser that uses WebKit?
- Does this issue happen with all publications, or just specific ones?
- Have you tried updating the app or browser to the latest version recently?

In the meantime, here are a few steps you might try to resolve this:

1. Update the App/Browser:
Make sure you are running the latest version of PressReader app or your web browser (if using the web). Sometimes these display or gesture bugs are fixed in updates.

2. Clear Cache and Restart:
Sometimes cached data can cause display glitches. Clearing the cache of the app or browser and restarting it may help.

3. Change Reading View:
PressReader offers different reading views (e.g., original layout vs simplified text). Switching between them might avoid this superimposition issue. You can usually find this option inside the reading interface.

4. Check Zoom Settings:
Try zooming in using other methods like keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + Plus) rather than gestures, to see if the problem persists. This could isolate whether it’s related to the gesture function itself.

5. Disable Multi-Page Scrolling:
If the view has multi-page layout enabled, try switching to single page scrolling if possible, as multi-page views occasionally cause side-by-side page overlaps during zoom.

If these steps don’t resolve the superimposition issue, do let me know. It could be a bug in how the gesture zoom interacts with your Windows WebKit setup, in which case I can guide you on reporting this to PressReader support or help you troubleshoot further.

Are you satisfied with these suggestions so far? Let me know what you’ve tried, and we can proceed accordingly!
