Subject: bug#17788: 24.3; ruler-mode: column indicators "hop" left if you drag them diagonally
Date: Sun, 15 Jun 2014 21:17:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <84ppiahtix.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello, I found a minor bug in ruler mode, here is
a recipe to reproduce it:
- start emacs -Q
- M-x ruler-mode RET
- click S-<mouse-1> on the column 10 of the ruler, this will set a left
margin
- you will see the ruler has two column indicators in red colour:
"#" for comment column, and "pilcrow" symbol for paragraph fill indicator
- click and hold down mouse-2 (= center mouse button) on the red "#" indicator
- drag the indicator horizontally; indicator will follow the mouse as expected
- continue dragging slightly diagonally (for example in West-South-West
direction); as soon as you drag the mouse out of the grey ruler area,
you will see that the indicator "hops" left of about 10 columns
I realize the explanation may be hard to follow because it involves
mouse dragging, so I prepared a small explicative image, it's available
here:

May someone please confirm if the above recipe seems to be reproducible.
Thanks in advance for your attention and your patience in reading,
kindest regards.
