113584 - Image Placeholders are partially visible aside loaded image

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 109418

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Michael Möllney]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.6) Gecko/20011120
BuildID:    2001112013

Whenever this page is loaded frmo the WWW (no images in the cache) Mozilla
places image-placeholders on the view until the images are loaded. But onthis
page the images seems to have some transparency under the visible part. So some
'flydirt' is left of the placeholder image.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load given www page
If Images in the cache use CTRL+Reload

Actual Results:  Image Placeholders of Mozilla partially seen

Expected Results:  Placeholders should be removed

Perhaps it Placeholer could be removed if Mozilla has Data for the image, just
before the image is filled in the image area.

I saw this too, on Mozilla 0.9.6 on Linux (Redhat 7.2).
Note that if you cause Mozilla to refresh the parts of the display containing
these ugly partially-visible image placeholders (e.g., by covering the Mozilla
by another window and then moving it away), only the correct images are redrawn.
So Mozilla knows that it should be displaying them...

Note that this problem manifests itself in many high-profile sites (e.g.,
amazon.com) - it doesn't happen only in obscure cases.

I don't remember this problem in previous Mozilla versions (did Mozilla even
have these placeholders in previous versions?).

I guess this is a linux problem since I don't see it here
I have
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.6+) Gecko/20011203

Confirming on Linux with build 2001120303, I would say this bug is 1-week old,
I've been seeing this behaviour with nighlties for 1 week. Win2k builds are not
affected though, so might be Linux-only (perhaps MacOS user can confirm ?).
Didn't look for dupes.

i believe this was fixed in bug 109418 on Jan. 18th: Checkincomment read:

"Loading and Broken image icons will no longer be drawn if the image size is
smaller than the icon size. This fixes a problem where garbage was being left on
the screen after the image loaded, because the Linux RenderingContext does not
corectly clip image drawing. b=109418, r=pavlov, sr=blizzard, a=blizard on
behalf of drivers"
