GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 337543
Image position shifts after clicking Next
Last modified: 2006-04-07 12:47:31 UTC
Please describe the problem: When going from image A to image B using the "Next" toolbar button, image A is briefly shifted or resized before being replaced by B. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a folder with jpeg images called "A.jpg" and "B.jpg" 2. Open image A.jpg in EOG. 3. Click "Next". Actual results: Before image "B.jpg" appears, the image "A.jpg" is shifted up a few pixels in the EOG window. Then it is replaced by "B.jpg". If "A.jpg" already fills the entire height of the window, then instead of being shifted up, image "A.jpg" is briefly resized a few pixels smaller before being replaced by "B.jpg". Expected results: I would expect instead that A.jpg should be cleanly replaced by the image B.jpg. The present appearance makes the application look unstable. Does this happen every time? This happens every time (on my machine). Other information:
I think I know why this is happening. I am using Ubuntu 6.06 (dapper). With dapper's Human theme, the progress bar in EOG's status bar (at the bottom of the window) is drawn rather wide. When "Next" is clicked, the progress-bar is drawn during the loading of the next image, while the previous image is still displayed. The width of the progress bar is wider than the status bar allows. So gtk (or whatever) redraws the status bar a little wider while the progress bar is displaying. Consequently, the displayed image is moved up also (or shrunk if there is not room to move it up in the window.) Now, whose bug is this? EOG, or ubuntulooks?
