213620 - Bad painting / invalidation on incremental reflow

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Web Painting, defect)

Description

[Aaron Kaluszka]

When browsing I run across many sites (including Yahoo!) where the entire page
shifts to the left during the final incremental reflow.  However, the canvas is
not invalidated properly because remnants of the original layout rendering are
left behind until reload or external program causes the area to be repainted.  I
have had this problem for a few months and never reported it because I assumed
that somebody would have noticed a problem like this.  I have seen this problem
on two Windows machines and one Linux machine, all running FireBird with the
latest version being 20030714.

Take a look at the right side of the tables on this attachment to see the
problem.  Sorry the file is large; I would have attached JNG, but well... you
know.

We may have just fixed this with a checkin a few days ago ... please retest with
a new build

Yep, seems to work in today's build so far.  I'll reopen if I find out otherwise.
