[win32] cell border animation (walking ants) looks wrong
Last modified: 2014-01-30 03:06:23 UTC
Windows XP, Gnumeric 1.6.2-rc1 The "walking ants" cell border animation after ctrl-c looks wrong. 1. Select B2 2. Press Ctrl-c, down, down The border animation of cell A1 looks wrong.
It's a bit hard to explain, but the cell border alternates between these states: "-- -- -- -- " " -- -- -- --" when it used to be something like: "- - - - - - " " - - - - - -" The animation is not "symmetric" anymore.
I think this regressed between versions 1.5.2-rc2 and 1.5.3-rc1.
(In reply to comment #0) > The border animation of cell A1 looks wrong. That should've been B2, obviously.
This appears fixed in the new development packages. http://www.gnome.org/~jody/gnumeric/win32/gnumeric-1.9.0-win32-20080301.exe
http://www.gnome.org/~jody/gnumeric/win32/gnumeric-1.9.3-20081017.exe has this bug again. Do you want this bug reopened or should I file a new bug?
I'm not seeing it with the 20090205 build. Could you re-check ?
Created attachment 128230 [details] Animated gif showing the problem Not fixed with the 20090205 build. I made an animated gif that hopefully illustrates the problem. Above: gnumeric-1.9.4-20090205-debug.exe: cell animation looks wrong (not symmetric) Below: gnumeric-1.5.2-rc2.exe: cell animation ok (symmetric)
sounds like some of the more recent work on this in gtk space has broken things. Tor : any ideas ?
Is this still the case in the latest Windows version of Gnumeric (released late November) 20091130 ?
Yes, the animation still looks wrong with the latest version (gnumeric-1.9.16-20091130.exe)
The drawing code for gtk3 as used in Gnumeric 1.12.x is completely different, so I am tentatively marking this as obsolete. We alternate between drawing ---- ---- ---- and ---- ---- ---- I imagine things would be smoother if we did ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
