GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 80202
At logout confirmation if user chooses Cancel backdrop remains faded.
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
To Reproduce: On Solaris 8 1) Select Actions -> Log Out. 2) Nautilus Backdrop fades and confirmation dailog popsup. 3) Choose Cancel, to prevent ending session. Expect session to continue as before, yet backdrop remains faded. Although the user can right click and select "Reset Desktop Background", this can only be used once per session as if the user again logs out and Cancels the option to reset the background is no longer available.
This was found on beta4 on Solaris 8.
Pretty major. Does it clear away at all, Keelin?

No not without being reset using Nautilus, terminal's and some applications like Dictionary remain faded even though the backdrop can be redrawn using Nautilus. Checked with CVS build 15th May.
looking at this...
Created attachment 8612 [details] [review] fix
fixed in CVS: 2002-05-20 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com> * logout.c (display_gui): destroy the dialog before doing refreshing and stuff. somehow, this fixes #80202 owen: any idea *why* this fixes it?
Works better when gnome-sesssion segfaults? Widgets inside the box are referenced after your call to destroy()... No idea.
yeah i had thought about that this morning, but missed it when i check the code. thanks owen - fixed now.
