GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 144773
Differing row heights for some fonts cause gantt to lose alignment.

If you set the text input method to hangul (KSC5601) and then put something in (I have no idea what Hangul means - I was just playing with different stuff until I could find a bug ) but if you put in lower case letters ASCII chars like 'x' then It'll seem to shove in correct ideograms OK but you'll notice that these ideograms are taller than regular ones. This causes the gantt table on the left hand side to resize its height OK but the actual gantt rows on the right hand side doesn't follow suit. The whole gantt is now out of alignment. Though its similar to another problem mentioned before in bugzilla it's not the same (although it looks similar). The other bug has something to do with when we check the row height and when the font is set, and it seems like that bug isn't present when using a more recent GTK+. This one, when rows have different heights should be solvable but would require a bit of reworking in the gantt chart since it currently assumes that all rows have the same height (it's not that difficult to fix though since the code is actually prepared for non-uniform heights). (quoting from Richard).
Se also, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128983 which was the other bug mentioned but we think is not related though it ends up showing a similar effect in the gantt.
I can confirm this bug on my system. Same basic symptoms with version 0.12.1 -- gantt chart bars are vertically shorter than the WBS tasks, causing them to be out of alignment
Which font are you using? And which theme?
The Font is Sans Bold 10. The Theme is just called "Smallscreen" (I use XFCE 4.2 as my window manager)
Unable to recreate in version 0.14.2
This bug seems to have been fixed through bug 128983.
I get the symptoms of this bug in 0.14.3 under plain old X (non-gnome, unthemed, default fonts, Ubuntu, ctwm) and an Eee PC (Xandros, again not running Gnome, icewm). It's hard to tell if it's exactly this bug of course, as there seem to be several interwoven bugs talking about this general behaviour that are all being blamed on each other :) In my case the Gantt rows are taller than the text descriptions.
(In reply to comment #7) I should mention that I get the same behaviour in 0.14.2 too.
(In reply to comment #7) The row height in the chart part of the view is fixed, but the name/work/assigned/etc rows are variable height. Clearly a clue :)
