Subject: bug#17926: Menu and tooltip glitches using GTK toolkit
Date: Thu, 03 Jul 2014 23:15:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <53B5D5F1.5010109@zen.co.uk> (raw)
When I click on a menu - say the Options menu, then cursor down to a
sub-menu - say "Line wrapping in this buffer" - then when the pointer
reaches the sub-item, its menu doesn't open. I then have to move the
mouse slightly, and only then does the menu open. Further, tooltips in a
menu sometimes don't appear correctly at first. They appear clipped
and incomplete, but a further mouse move makes them redraw correctly.
All other GTK apps work normally.
I have created a youtube video which illustrates the above :-

This affects version 24.3.1, installed in ubuntu 14.04, both on 32 and
64 bit installations. I also downloaded the source, also version
24.3.1, and compiled that, with the same results.
A workaround is to configure with "--with-x-toolkit=athena". This
toolkit's menus don't suffer from the same problems, and work fine.
