29636 - Gfx and Native Scrollbars do not print correctly and can cause problem with layout

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect, P3)

Description

[rods (gone)]

The example has 4 divs.

When layed out using Gfx scrollbars:
1) overflow:auto, width & height set 
results: layouts fine, prints badly, printing causes extra scrollbars to appear 
in layout

2) overflow:auto, width & height set, position absolute
results: layouts fine, but it is missing its borders, prints badly: contents 
don't print

3) width & height not set
results: layouts fine, prints fine 

4) width & height not set, position absolute
results: layouts fine, prints fine 

When layed out using NATIVE scrollbars:
1) overflow:auto, width & height set 
results: layouts fine, nothing prints

2) overflow:auto, width & height set, position absolute
results: layouts fine, nothing prints

3) width & height not set
results: layouts fine, prints fine 

4) width & height not set, position absolute
results: layouts fine, prints fine

Gary want to take a look at this? When printing we are just transforming to 
another device context. It Should work.

Don't spend any time getting native scrollbars to work, they are not supported.

whoa, we will be using Native scrollbars for selects and dropdowns. Although, 
dropdowns do not need to print. Gfx scrollbars on selects (as ListBoxes) are far 
from working. In fact, I have this example (and I filed a bug ages ago) that has 
several different examples of using Gfx scrollbars with divs and listbozes and 
they get all horked after printing. At one time Eric was looking at this, but 
maybe he went on to other things.

Moving from [nsbeta2+] to [nsbeta2-] per todays PDT XP Toolkit Beta2 Review mtg.

->future.  I don't see this as one of the top bugs we have to fix for NS6.  Who
needs printed scrollbars, really?  

Comment 16

[Peter Trudelle]

I should add that the example content *does* print, with border and background...

Sanity check:  This blocks bug 40158 (RESOLVED FIXED)?

Removing dependency on this.
