Redraw problem
Hi list, I've experienced the following problem with X. The intersecting parts of X windows are not get redrawn properly. It seems that a lack of redraw is the problem, since moving the mouse around makes the hidden part visible again. Intersecting with native ones works fine. This problem exist in -multiwindow with root windows turned off. Xwinwm seems to fix the problem, but I've experienced instability using it. (version 0.0.5). There are some utilities like xfontsel or titrax etc..., which use motif? as widgetset, are more likely to get corrupted than others. With xterm or KDE I can hardly remember any case.

I've not seen such problems for about one year. It happens always. (Turning on the root window seems to help) This problem seems to effect motif apps only. (titrax, xfontset) Any ideas? Maybe if you could provide me a debug version of the current Xwin.exe, then i could send the output back. ps. There are some screen shots available at koli.rulez.org/ ~smil / xfree (http) Cheers, -- Cserveny Tamas Der Kopf und der Hals gehen zusammen in den Garten und spielen Ball im Wasser.

I've tried xfontsel on the same machine (Windows XP) as the server was, causing the same corruption. do the problems appear in windowed (non multiwindow) mode? No, -multiwindow is the only mode where i could reporduce the problem. (not even in -mwextwm) Have you tried a different xserver (exceed or xorg on linux)? yes, reflection X, and no problems, even in their multiwindow mode. -- Cserveny Tamas Der Kopf und der Hals gehen zusammen in den Garten und spielen Ball im Wasser.

Hi list, Dave Carrigan wrote a letter previously about this issue. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) My problem is pretty much the same, but i'm not using xwinwm. XWinWM would be workaround for the problem (maybe it makes an additional refrEsh), but it won't solve the issue. This problem exist in -multiwindow mode. I have made some screen shots under http://koli.rulez.org/~smil/xfree - the level of blankness is not the same for all widgetsets. Eg. Motif seems to be more affected and KDE seems to loose rarely one or to lines. (It seems that only fonts get lost, once konsole's tabs but that is very rare) - Moving the mouse on the missing parts would reveal the content. (bug3.jpg) - There are no window tweaking tool installed on this computer. (XP SP1) - Tested with local xclients and sun59 clients. (standard tools like xfontset also affeced) I hope I was able to provide as enough information. If someone has a debug binary I would be happy to make tests with it. (cygcheck's output is uploaded to the above address was well as the xwin.log) -- Cserveny Tamas ps. Sorry for the empty message
