64869 - Resizing a frame causes the frame to be smeared until mouse stops

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Aaron Lehmann]

To reproduce:
* Go to a site with frames (if you need one: http://vitelus.com/homework.html)
* Grab the border between the frames and move your mouse madly (don't let the
frame stay the same size for any apreciable amount of time)
* Observe the growing frame. For me, the newly-visible portion of the frame
contains distorted versions of the part of the frame that used to be there.

Once the frame has stopped being resized for about a third of a second (i.e. you
hold your mouse stationary for a third of a second), the frame repaints correctly.

I don't see this with redhat6.2 and today's linux build 011008.

I see what the reporters talking about but its a problem with the
Hardware/Software not being able to keep up with the redraw requests from the
user and it occurs on any computer with slow hardware/software. Marking INVALID.
