Description James Cape 2002-05-27 05:15:03 UTC 
When clicking or dragging beyond the end of a buffer, the following warning
is spewed (per-event, really sucks when you're dragging):

(gnomechat:23527): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktextiter.c: line 3525
(gtk_text_iter_set_line_offset): assertion `char_on_line <= chars_in_line'
failed

This happens in my use of the GtkTextView widget, and gedit's, so I'm
thinking it's a problem with the widget. This happens whether I'm messing
with events or not, BTW.

I believe the problem lies in gtk_text_layout_get_iter_at_pixel ().

After rebuilding things against the GTK+ packages in Debian sid, this
problem disappeared. Consequently I've no idea why this started
occuring, or how to fix it, though I get the feeling that either my
CFLAGs or a bad installation caused this.

I'm closing this bug since I haven't seen it in the last month.
