201930 - strange behavior when moving bookmarks around

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: Bookmarks, defect)

In the bookmarks drawer, if I have a bookmark with a long title inside a folder,
and I increase the horizontal size of the drawer, everything is fine.  More of
the bookmark title can be seen.  However, when I drag another bookmark into that
folder, (it can be a short name) the additional information past the default
length is redrawn as plain white, the text after the default horizontal length
disappears.  The only way to make it reappear is to resize the drawer

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make a bookmarks folder
2. make a bookmark with a long name (ie, "Hermann Hesse -- Biography and Works")
3. put it in the folder
4. make another bookmark
5. resize the bookmarks drawer so more of the name is visible
6. drag the second bookmark into the folder

Actual Results:  
the additional information past the default drawer length disappears

Expected Results:  
not engage in the practice of making text disappear

I'm having trouble reproducing this effect.  I could reproduce it last night,
but on restart, everything seems to be working normal.

Resolving WFM based on reporters last comment.

Harrison, please reopen this bug with any more details you may have noticed if
the problem creeps back up

Hi, it seems this bug comes and goes; right now I can duplicate it.  Here's how
it goes:


Create lengthy (the sidebar must be made bigger to see the whole name) bookmark
name in a folder.  move another bookmark into tha folder (within the bookmarks
sidebar)  The last few percent of the long bookmark name turns white, and is
only refreshed when I resize the sidebar.


By the way, it would be nice if the ends of long names would appear faster when
resizing the sidebar.  As it is, long names will not be redrawn past the
original sidebar length until dragging is stopped. 

I hope I'm making sense here...

Harrison, can you still reproduce this problem using a current nightly build?

Comment 8

[Harrison Pugh]

greg, I guess with the latest build, the sidebar is gone, is that correct?  If
it is gone, then no I cannot reproduce the bug, because it was specific to
sidebar resizing.

Resolving Invalid since the Sidebar no longer exists.
