Virtual gadget effects

Post by cha05e90 »

Hello,

this is a re-post of a virtual.gadget quirk form os4coding.net (http://www.os4coding.net/forum/virtual-gadget-quirks) , so I'll give only a short summary here:

While doing an overhaul of AISSview I found that the current public version of virtual.gadget (53.5, Update 1) shows some strange effects, especially when switching from "full view" to "view with scroll bars" due to different sized contents:
v-gadget-1 53.5

v-gadget-2 53.5
v-gadget-2 53.5

Switching back to the original virtual.gadget (52.2) from vanilla OS4.1 everything shows up nicely:

v-gadget 52.2

This can be reproduced with AISSview (http://www.os4depot.net/index.php?funct ... viewer.lha) from os4depot - the source code for this application can be found there http://www.os4depot.net/index.php?funct ... er-src.lha, too.

Checking the release notes for virtual.gadget, I see a bug has been fixed which relates to the window backfill, and as such the problem you show here is solved with virtual.gadget 53.6.

Ah, ok. Thanks for that information, Simon - so I'll sit down and wait patiently. :-)

Tested with virtual.gadget V53.6 and it's still faulty, so I'll raise a BZ for it.

Bug #7142 opened.
cheers
