202682 - Mozilla window fails to redraw under GNOME 2.2 using multiple desktops.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Matt Williams]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

Occasionally Mozilla 1.4a will not redraw it's window completely when switching
between multiple desktops. If I roll the mouse over a button, the button will
redraw. If I minimize and then restore the window, it looks fine. This happens
regardless of which theme I use (tested under classic and modern). It does not
seme to happen if switching between apps on the same desktop. It doesn't seem to
matter what web page I'm visiting. I haven't seen this problem with Mozilla 1.3
or any other program.

Please do let me know if this is a GNOME issue and not a Mozilla issue. I would
like to report it to the proper programmers. It's not a critical problem, just
an annoyance.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit any web page.
2. Start an application on another virtual desktop.
3. Switch between the desktops.
4. To fix the problem, minimize/restore Mozilla.
Actual Results:  
Mozilla window doesn't redraw correctly and parts of the other desktops remain
on the screen.

Expected Results:  
Redrawn it's window completely.
