seen on 0101 0.9.4 branch build. steps: download and install viewpoint plugin as mentioned in bug 116108. Go to the url above Resize the page so that the vertical scrollbar appears. With the mouse, try to scroll down..observe that scrollbar gets locked. After you click once inside the content area, and then try, scrolling works..however the content does not lay out properly...( cube disappears and appears messed up). After I resize the page, things paint correctly.
one more thing, if you can scroll during the first instance, pls click inside the plugin area once and then try to scroll again.You should see the locking problem I mentioned.
I think this is related to something I have been looking into today: As soon as you click into the plugin window once, ALL MOUSE EVENTS (probably includes this scrolling problem, also clicking on buttons or just clicking elsewhere on the page) get sent to the plugin. I think the reason is that we steal the mouse capture and release it when the button is released (on WM_LBUTTONUP). But this means that you never get the BUTTON UP message yourself. I am trying to send it on to you- that may clear up some of thse problems.
I put up a new version of the plugin that should fix the problem where the scroll bar gets locked. The paint problem is still there- I'll look at that next. The URL for the plugin is: http://cole.viewpoint.com/~aberger/npViewpoint.dll (I have not uploaded an installer with the new dll yet).
Is this the same painting bug as was marked fixed in bug 116108? It looks to me like both say that if you change the position of the plugin/scroll the page, it doesn't get redrawn correctly. It was marked fixed there but it looks broken to me. Is this the same problem? Am I correct to expect SetWindow calls as the page gets scrolled? I don't get any.
I think...116018 was about the ' window resize' problem. This one is about 'scroll'. Andrei had mentioned/asked about this in bug 114667 here ------- Additional Comment #27 From Andrei Volkov (av) 2001-12-19 15:36 -------
guess this is edt material. Nominating...

Is this - bug 110094 - the scrolling bug that you are looking for?
I agree with David that the remaining part of this bug is a duplicate of bug 110094. That is assuming that the first part of the bug (scrollbar getting locked) is seen fixed in the current version of our plugin. I tested it- it seems to be OK. If you agree that it no longer locks, and that the only problem is that we don't preserve our position when scrolled, then this should probably be marked duplicate of 110094. If you still see the scrollbar locking, please let me know.
y'sir, just verified that the scrollbar no longer locks in 0106 0.9.4 branch build and using your latest plugin. Marking dup of 110094. Thx! I see a new problem with the mouse pointer, filed as bug 118642 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 110094 ***
