Before GTK maps the toplevel window, it issues a ConfigureRequest to resize the window. Probably because this request may be redirected to and modified by the window manager, though I'm not sure it would be for an unmapped window, GDK does not record the new size on the window until it receives the ConfigureNotify reply. Immediately after the toplevel is mapped, GDK sets a shape on the child window. This is based on parent window sizes - probably some client- side window code that doesn't really make much sense for the server-side toplevel window size. GDK still considers the toplevel to have the size it had before the ConfigureRequest, which happens to be the default GtkWindow size of 200x200. The child window has a back pixmap of None, meaning it shows nothing until it is drawn, and so the background remains. The toplevel window has a back pixmap or background color based on the theme and so looks inconsistent. Some options I'm thinking about: 1) Change the default size of the window. This needs to be done before realizing the window, but the desired size is not provided at that point. A small size could be selected to limit the effect to 1 pixel. 2) Try sizing the window as soon as possible instead of waiting until Show. The event loop would need to run to process the ConfigureNotify, so this may not be helpful. 3) Look into setting the back pixmap of the toplevel window to None. 4) Don't set the back pixmap of child windows to None. 5) Find out why dlbi changes made this show up.

What is different with refresh driver painting is that it calls GetThebesSurface() off the refresh driver to select a buffer format for the BasicThebesLayer buffer. This can result in the X Window for the child window being created before GDK receives the ConfigureNotify event. Perhaps we could come up with a different reference surface (the toplevel window surface would be fine in our controlled situation) but the problem would be harder to solve with GL layers where the GLContext is created for the native X window into which we'll draw. I don't think we can Show/Map the window, and then paint immediately because the Map request is redirected to the window manager and may not have been effected before we paint. And the child window will still have the incorrect shape, masking out drawing until the ConfigureNotify is received.

It seems it is used mostly for window-manager-initiated resize drags, possibly because most apps don't have background None. gtk_window_show() does not increment configure_request_count when it resizes the window, and so gtk_window_configure_event() bails out early, replying to the _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST before the drawing has taken place. kwin 4.8.5 does not wait (any significant time at least) for the _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST reply before drawing the frame. It only sends the message for the resize before show when compositing is enabled. metacity 2.30.3 and 2.34.8 do not send a _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST for the resize before show, with or without compositing enabled. They do send these when dragging the frame border to resize. I haven't tested compiz or mutter which I would expect to use _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST at least for resize drags. Bug 378293 seems to suggest compiz is using _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST as an indicator of when it expects to have all Damage events for a window show.

This would be quite the wrong thing for translucent windows, as the shape would be wrong until we paint. However, we only make override-redirect windows transparent and GDK handles override-redirect windows differently, resizing synchronously and temporarily setting the background to None during show to suppress display of the background. This patch is perhaps a simple quick fix, but we can do a better fix. Using ParentRelative makes child Windows look just like their parent Window's background until they are drawn. This seems to look a little better than setting background None on the toplevel, which leads to the window manager frame painting while there still seems to be a big gap in the middle. ParentRelative has the additional requirement that the parent window needs to have matching depth. Usually our child windows inherit the colormap/visual from the parent and so that is satisfied. That inheritance doesn't guarantee the same depth when windows are reparented. The only toplevel windows that we give different depths are popup windows, so that would only be a problem if we had windowed plugins in a popup. However, I'm not sure that styles/themes can't set different visuals on different widgets, which would be a problem to solve when reparenting to the GtkInvisible widget.

The best strategy would be to redesign MozContainer to be a GTK_NO_WINDOW widget and stop creating child nsWindows for each toplevel window. I'll upload patches for that.

This is a notification that the window has changed. When the viewer is not mAttachedToParent, it makes sense to resize the child window in response to toplevel change. Resizing the toplevel again doesn't make sense in this situation, and would lead to infinite recursion (unless broken in some way). When !mAttachedToParent the Resize() here would not resize the toplevel, so some other mechanism should be used if the intention is to resize the toplevel. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=5ab9d45888b3 https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=6691a8e5486b Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1107850/comments/10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-10-19T04:20:19+00:00 Karlt wrote: Created attachment 673084 remove unused event handler parameters The following patch will change widget signal handlers somewhat.

The child window XIDs are available from xwininfo anyway, so I've just included the parent window for child window logs to help tie things together. This also now output the single mGdkWindow as it is shared by both widgets.

With child windows, the resize notification here of parent window change caused a client request to resize the child window (through WindowResized). GDK invalidated the new part of the child window while doing this. Immediately after dispatching this size-allocate signal, GTK does a synchronous paint of invalid regions. Without a child window, the client-side invalidate doesn't happen and the X Expose event hasn't been received yet and so the repaint lags behind, leaving the background quite visible. The ForcedRepaint() code in the view system doesn't work as well as we might like. It invalidates the whole window, but with basic layers only the region in the native expose event is repainted. The whole invalidated rect is repainted later, but by that time it seems the window manager has already started compositing the new portion that was painted and includes the background of the new part of the window as well. I guess we could change this process to repaint freshly invalidated regions as well as the region of the expose signal, but I'll save that for a later date. This patch is essentially keeping the behavior that we have on child windows. I guess we could invalidate the whole window here, but we don't seem to need to. The key is to prevent the background flickering by painting the new part as fast as possible. It doesn't seem to matter that the painting of resized existing content lags a little. While modifying this code, I'm skipping the WindowResized if there is no change. If mBounds was changed in the Resize() methods, then WindowResized would have been called there.
