Description Luis Villa 2005-08-09 15:26:32 UTC
So, compile everything with teh sexy, and after entering characters in the main
text entry field, X goes all to hell. (This is a very new X from ubuntu, CVS
gtk, new-ish everything.) Nuke libsexy and rebuild and things are fine again. I
doubt it is an xchat-gnome bug per se, but that is what is revealing it so I
figured this was the least bad place to start.
Comment 1 Luis Villa 2005-08-21 19:32:42 UTC
After some conversation in IRC, this definitely looks like a libsexy/gtk2.8
thing- libsexy against 2.6 seems to work for everyone in IRC, and everyone with
the problem is running 2.8.
Comment 2 Luis Villa 2005-08-22 03:17:01 UTC
This can be duplicated by checking out libsexy[1], building it, and running
tests/test-spell-entry. Given that the duplication case is easier than I
thought, and that this happens only with gtk 2.8 and not 2.6, reassigning to gtk.

Can you provide a stacktrace from when X goes to hell ?

Not very exciting; I have the feeling I'm doing something wrong, but...
Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2005-08-22 17:48:24 UTC
Looks like a problem with PANGO_ERROR_UNDERLINE.
If I comment out the setting of that attribute in sexy-spell-entry.c,
things return to normal.
Comment 6 Matthias Clasen 2005-08-22 19:30:33 UTC
Seems to be a problem with the implementation of squiggly underlines in 
PangoCairoRenderer. They work fine in GtkTextView and GtkLabel, which use
GdkPangoRenderer. Curiously, the two implementations are almost the same,
modulo some y axis flipping. 
Comment 7 Owen Taylor 2005-08-24 20:04:38 UTC
Underline was being rendered 1024 times too big in both directions.

        * pango/pangocairo-render.c (draw_error_underline): convert
        from Pango units to doubles, fix some coordinate space problems
        that had previously been fixed in GTK+. (#313015, Luis Villa)
