378010 - Garbled text on thread pane - First row text repeated on all odd rows

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 352694

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Rafael Villar Burke]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3
Build Identifier: versión 2.0.0.0 (20070326)

When opening the application, either in safe mode or normal mode, the text for the first row in the thread pane is overlayed over the text for the even rows, rendering them unreadable. This happens for all the columns (subject, sender...).
If the pane is scrolled, the same happens but with the new first row text:
First row shows fine, second row has the first row text over it, third row shows fine, fourth row has the first row text over it, fifth row shows fine, and so on...

If a wrongly rendered line is selected and then unselected its text is now correctly rendered. If you highlight the rows from the first one to the last one in the visible rows you get all rows rendered fine, but if you do it following the inverse order (from the last row to the first) then the even rows (2,4,6...) are rendered wrongly and are kept highlighted.

This problem happens in any mode, threaded or not.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the app
2.See the thread pane
Actual Results:  
Garbled text for even rows in the thread pane

Expected Results:  
Text in thread pane should render ok its contents

Bug also affects PC/Windows 2000.

On a few (non-reproducible) occasions, the problem has self-corrected after composing a new message, but returns if Thunderbird is exited and restarted.

Loading the Phoenity 0.2.5 theme corrected the rendering of the list, but had other issues with the rendering of forward/back buttons.

Loading the Littlebird 1.7.08 theme caused the rendering issue to affect the folder tree as well as the message list.
