Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 18232
Redrawing of the images is garbled when toolbox windows overlap
Last modified: 2003-10-06 10:00:37 UTC
If you have toolbox windows open in draw (like the alignment toolbox) Then have a picture with elements that are overlapped by this toolbox and you scroll up and down, the redrawing of the elements gets ofsetted. This could be the same bug as the reports about hint windows in writer, but I'm not sure. I did not confirm this with rc3 yet, but it also exists in rc(1)
Set to new.
This is also visible on windows. It gets quite disturbing when you have two of these docking windows open, one at the top and one at the bottom of your doc. When scrolling the picture in the back the complete space between these two windows is poorly repainted. Reassinged to Christian, please have a look if there can be done something. Thanks!
armin, please have a look
.
pauldv, can You please tell me clearly: Do You mean there is a real repaint-error or are You talking about the flickering while scrolling? Thanks in advance.
No it is really a redraw issue. I've been on holiday so I don't know whether it still holds with the latest release. Basically what happens is that I open a window in draw, I scroll horizontally in such a way that part of my picture will be below the toolbox. Then I click on a toolbox button on the tools bar (left of the screen), for example the allignment tool. Then I use my mouse to drag the scrollbar up and down. In most cases I will now have created an artifact.
AW->WG: It's an redraw error, not the flickering. Please try to reproduce the redraw error.
Do the artifacts stay visible after you stop dragging the scrolbar? I can only reproduce a short white flickering. It occurs where the picture has to be redrawn because the toolbox "went over it", by dragging the scrollbar.
Yes, they stay visible after stopping. It looks like an of by one error.
Created attachment 9596 [details] Draw file with screenshot
Reassigned to Armin.
Created attachment 9597 [details] Another example of the artefacts (That should be a square and a rounded square)
Argh, the stupid screenshot program forced a redraw. I'll make another screenshot
Created attachment 9598 [details] A better show of the artefacts. There should only be one rounded box
AW->WG: Please try to reproduce. It may be a window handler problem or a graphics driver problem. We had no such reports up to now, so it is necessary to find out if this is caused by a component at pauldv. AW->pauldv: Can You try on another window manager, another X and maybe another graphics card driver? We cannot reproduce here up to now.
Sorry, still not reproducible. So I close this one here, but feel free to reopen it if you have further information. Thanks for your help.
Closed.
