Description Owen Taylor 2003-02-25 00:11:31 UTC 
- Start keyboard resizing
- Hit left and down to go to the lower right
- Use keys to move lower left
- Cursor doesn't stay in the same place with respect
  to the resize grip.

Every other arrow key press seems to push the cursor to the wrong
place, then the following press fixes.
Comment 2 Elijah Newren 2004-10-06 19:55:05 UTC 
Either this bug has been fixed or I don't understand it, because I can't seem to
duplicate.  Is this still an issue?
Comment 3 Owen Taylor 2004-10-06 20:04:09 UTC 
I think it was an obvious bug. Seems better now, though I'm seeing some jumping
back when I hold down a key and let it repeat.

If that can be reproducd with current metacity, that probably should be filed
separately. (It might have to do with update-counter changes, so should be
tested with HEAD GTK+)
Comment 4 Elijah Newren 2004-10-06 20:37:53 UTC 
Are you seeing the jumping back only when you hit the screen edge, or at other
times?  If it's only at the screen edge, this is filed as bug 154706.  If it's
at other times, and this is gnome-terminal, I don't think we have a bug filed
yet.  If it's an app other than gnome-terminal and not at the screen edge, I'm
not yet aware of the issue.
Comment 5 Owen Taylor 2004-10-06 20:41:00 UTC 
No, it wasn't at screen edge, no it wasn't with gnome-terminal. (It was
mozilla)
Comment 6 Elijah Newren 2004-10-14 20:16:37 UTC 
Yeah, I can duplicate.  It turns out there's another report about just this
issue, so I'm going to mark as a duplicate of it.
Comment 7 Elijah Newren 2004-10-14 20:17:04 UTC 
Doh!  Ooops, reopening now so I can mark as a dupe...
