User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7 When scrolling slowly through any web page, a line of text will often be painted missing a row of pixels. This makes the text look cut off (if the missing row is the bottom row) or compressed (if missing a row from the middle). Highlighting some of the text in that line repaints the whole line as normal. This is the same symptom as Bug 217753, except that it happens for me using Firebird under Windows XP so I wanted to report it here. See that bug for pictures. I've had this problem since I started using Firebird (pre-0.6). It does not occur if I scroll only with PageUp/Dn. It also only occurs on my laptop which has a higher DPI setting in Windows' Display properties (120 DPI). If I return it to the default (96 DPI) the problem seems to go away. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a web page more than one screen in length. 2. Scroll down slowly using mouse wheel or arrow keys 3. Look for a line missing a row of pixels. Actual Results: Text is missing a row of pixels during/after scrolling. Expected Results: Text should look normal during and after scrolling.

Please provide more information, including URLs and screenshots. Since this is unconfirmed, I doubt it should block 0.8.

I've never seen it on Windows XP, but I do see it all the tine on Linux. The Linux build was 20040116

(Fen Wu, 02/24/04) Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7 Follow-Up Tests: 1. Go through the reproduce steps on http://www.romanm.ch/ascii-bilder/ascii-asterix.htm (ascii picture) 2. Go through the reproduce steps on http://www.cnet.com/ Notice that there is not broken text during slow scrolling. Suggest try the following: 3. Go through the reproduce steps on a very slow PC. 4. Change the display setting (lower the refresh frequency, coarse the display mode) and Go through the same reproduce steps.

It happens on my computer also: Red Hat 9, Mozilla 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6, ATI Mach 64 video card (4MB RAM), Athlon 750 with 512MB RAM. Display resolution is 1152x864, 65K colours. The problem goes away if I drop the resolution to 1024x768 or lower, but I can't live like that! Not all web pages trigger the problem. I dissected one of them and found that the key piece was "font-size: 10pt;" in either the .css file or style tag. By removing that from the page the problem went away. My test page is <a href="http://kenn-michelle.ca:8080/temp/33089.html">here</a>.

I'd say this is a dup of bug 152671 and at least ten or twenty others. See bug 134942 (tracking bug) for the complete list of single pixel error bugs.
