Crashes on window resize
Last modified: 2003-09-03 16:49:54 UTC
Description of Problem: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Display configured with shorcut hidden, folder bar on left, message headers top of right and message preview bottom of right. 2. Click in-box folder to view message headers. 3. Click on a message so it is shown in the message preview. My config has the grey box with the sender and recipient infor shown at the top of the message preview. 4. Now using either the TOP or BOTTOM window rezise bars, resize the whole Evolution window. 5. As you do so, the message preview window is resized. 6. As the resized window approaches the splitter-bar between the message headers and message preview the program crashes with a "Floating Point" exception. 7. It only seems to happen if a message is shown in the preview window. Actual Results: The program crashes with a Floating Point exception. Expected Results: The preview window would be "squashed" against the slider bar and bumped along with the window border. How often does this happen? Easily reproduced and predicatable (on my machine ;-) Additional Information: There doesn't appear to be a problem resizing horizontally (width). The problem can be produced using the windows bottom-right resizing thingy.
Can't reproduce this problem. Please attach a backtrace, otherwise we can't pinpoint the problem
Please reopen this report when you do so.

I was running Evolution under KDE with only a partial Gnome install (as installed by Mandrake 9.1 installer). After installing the full Gnome desktop (using RPMDrake) the problem has gone away. Looks like I was missing a library or something. I'll close this bug.
Matthew, Thanks a lot. It seems to me that your crash is related to Galaxy theme engine. Please try to change it to another theme and if you still have the crash reopen this report. This isn't a Evolution problem, but theme problem.
