Package: wxmaxima
Version: 19.07.0-1.1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
When using the built-in help in wxMaxima, keywords are anchored to wrong
positions in the help text.
For example, if open the help for "simp", it (roughly) jumps to the help for
"commutative".
Since the help font is also much smaller than expected (it's set to 14 points
in the wxMaxima help, but displays at something like 8), I suspect the
positioning has something to do with the render resolution. Perhaps the anchor
point is relative to the actual text position, but with everything rendered
much smaller, it jumps to a totally different position.
The font size scaling is set to 120dpi in the desktop environment.
This may be an upstream bug or an issue with wxWidgets in Debian, I'm not sure.
The desktop environment is KDE Plasma, wxWidgets uses native KDE widgets.
