Drawing problem with many entries inside a combobox
Last modified: 2005-04-07 06:42:37 UTC
Please describe the problem: Any combobox (with lots of items) which has to show a pager button (or whatever the arrow thing is called) shows some kind of drawing bug. If the current selection of the combobox is near the beginning or the end of the list and the combobox must be drawn for the first time, then half the list is empty. If you scroll the list in either direction, the items become visible one by one and can be selected. Once every item is shown and the whole combobox is drawn like it should be, then the problem does not show up again. It only happens on initial drawing. I've attached two screenshots showing this behaviour. The drawing bug happens on both ends of the list and shows up in all applications. The screenshots are taken of Epiphany. It happens with most themes I've tried. So it's likely to not be a theme engine problem. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Yes, if the combobox has enough entries to hit the edge of the screen. Other information: For reference: I'm using Debian sid with gtk-2.6.4-1 and xfree 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 on a S3 Savage MX videocard.
