Description Scott Van Wart 2003-09-18 00:36:19 UTC
If I quickly mouse over a hidden panel (no matter how fast I do this) and
then withdraw just as quickly, the panel appears, but won't go away.  It
would be nice if it would simply not appear at all (ie: if the mouse is no
longer over the panel stub when it's time to unhide, don't unhide at all).

This should be better.
Comment 5 Arvind S N 2003-10-31 17:19:53 UTC
This fix allows you to see the property changes for an autohidden
panel. ie, the panel stays un-hidden till such time that the
properties dialog is not closed.
Comment 6 Mark McLoughlin 2003-11-04 12:32:27 UTC
Arvind: probably safer to put the unblocking in the destroy handler
for the dialogs instead - make sure to test with closing the dialog
using the window managers close button (or Alt-F4).

Other than that it looks good
Comment 7 Arvind S N 2003-11-07 12:10:03 UTC

2003-11-07  Arvind Samptur  <arvind.samptur@wipro.com>
