20060228 trunk

The area behind tooltips is not being redrawn after the tooltips disappear. This leaves blank white boxes where tooltips have been displayed. Screenshot coming.

Attachment: Little white squares left after tooltips

These white squares are what is left after a tooltip showing the tab's title disappears. This regressed sometime between 20060214 and 20060228.

Probably because of the switch to cairo.
Could you give an url or a testcase that shows the problem?

Load up a couple of tabs and then mouseover them to get a tooltip. It won't always refuse to redraw, but probably 60 - 75% of the time.

Load up http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/postquery?bill_number=ab_20&sess=CUR&house=B in two tabs for example.

I also see this sometimes when clicking links. The area behind the link will turn white.

Attachment: Same problem behind links

Looks more like a problem with backgrounds in general.

Not sure if this is strictly the same bug, but probably is general Cairo fallout.

Is this still a problem?  I'm pretty sure this is all fixed.

I don't know. After Cairo, Places, and stupid close buttons on tabs I stopped using trunk builds.

The branch builds aren't going to help you with close buttons ;)  ok, resolving this WORKSFORME for now, if anyone sees this again either reopen or file new.
