101357 - Helper application icons discolored

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Graphics: ImageLib, defect)

Description

[Ryan McLoughlin]

Win95 2001 09 23 08

The icon of a helper app is shown in two places:  1) The
Preferences->Navigator->Helper Applications dialog box.  2)  The "Open with ...
/ Save to disk" dialog box.

In both cases the icons are discolored.  Attachment coming.

This has been happening for a while.  I haven't changed my screen settings in
recent memory.

Reporter,
Do you know when this first started happening (build ID)?  

nsIconDecoder images: mscott's expertise.

Comment 6

[Scott MacGregor]

what's your resolution and what's your color depth? 16 bit, 32 bit, etc?

sounds like a bug in my windows icon decoder for your color depth & resolution.

Comment 7

[Ryan McLoughlin]

The problem occurs with 16 bit, 1024x768.

The problem does not occur with these settings:
24 bit, 800x600
32 bit, 800x600

Comment 8

[kirun]

To add to that, it does happen with 16 bit, 800x600.

1024x768 @ 16-bit.  Adobe PDF icon looks quite nice.

Reporter: Does this still occur for you with a more recent build?

(as always, be sure to delete your old Mozilla directory before installing the
new one)

Win 95, Build from 11/16

The problem is still happening, and in fact it's gotten worse.  The icons are
now stretched vertically in addition to being discolored.  Attachment coming.

Comment 12

[Ryan McLoughlin]

Attachment: Discolored and stretched icon

Reporter: Have you tried a fresh profile? You can manage/create profiles with
"mozilla.exe -profilemanager".

Comment 14

[Ryan McLoughlin]

I tried a fresh profile, no difference.

Note:  The colors in that last attachment are all off (I must have set the PNG
compression too high).

The vertical stretching is happening with all screen settings.

The discoloration is still only happening at 16 bit, and it always happens at 16
bit.

Ryan: Try installing the very latest versions of your video card drivers. If
that doesn't work, I'll -> NEW.

Comment 16

[Ryan McLoughlin]

Uninstalled video drivers... same effects.
Installed new video drivers..same effects.

ATI RAGE LT PRO

Comment 17

[Ashley Bischoff (blog at handcoding.com)]

Ok, -> NEW.

Adding block: bug 104992.

Comment 18

[Stuart Parmenter]

this is still mscott's.  please to be not reassigning me bugs that arn't mine.
thanks.

Comment 19

[Chris Brien]

The icon stretching is actually bug 111372 - please don't confuse this issue.

As for the discolouration - works for me (Win 2k, nVidia GeForce3, cvs build
from 23/11/2001). If it is a problem with ATI drivers, then this would be
invalid. Unfortunately, there isn't enough detail on bug 104992 to say for sure.

Comment 20

[Andreas Kunz]

Not sure about duping: that other bug 104992 is only about scrolling (and
clicking) artefacts mostly in conjuction with transparent images. I just checked
it and all duplicates of it. No one mentions or shows a different color like here.

However, bug 177038 seems to be quite closely related since the color change is
the same - it only occurs at different places (?)
Can someone, who can reproduce this, check the Download Manager and Progress
Dialogs if it also happens there?

[Andreas Kunz]

*** Bug 177038 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 22

[Andreas Kunz]

Info from dup:
Mach64 ATi video card, bug also occurs with 8 bit color depth and in download
manager/progress window.

Comment 23

[Andreas Kunz]

The same with ATI Rage II+ (with drivers from 1998) 800x600, 16 bit color, on
Win95 (Moz 1.2.1). Seems to affect a whole range of old ATI cards...
