Details

(Whiteboard: nsbeta3+)

there are page display issues since Linux Build 2000083121 and 20000901xx, if I change font size via view menu. They disapear, if I reload the page, but this is not good behavior, especially if the page is big. Font smaller error: e.g. links with too long underline. Font larger error: elements are overlapped.
Confirmed on 090110 Win98. In addition to the results that the reporter mentioned, increasing font size also makes link underlines too short. Nominating for beta3 - looks like an issue that will need to be fixed by then if changing text size will be viable.

attempting to triage Clayton's bugs Make font smaller and there is an underline. Make font larger and they overlap. I think a reflow needs to happen afterwards. In today's build, on NT, if you refresh the page after changing the text size, it looks correct rather than the text disapearing. assigning to pierre@netscape.com

improvements in at least Linux 2000090908 (didn't try the both earlier builds). The display error are gone. Fine. Nevertheless, page refresh happens only if I move the mouse into the content window. If I go with keys through the menus and resize text size, then nothing happens... until mouse over content window. Not a big issues, but still not perfect.
See bug 51578 for another problem with TextZoom. Reassigned to erik.

I see this problem also. It seem some code are caching the measurement and forget to remeasure after we switcht the menu. Mark this as nsbeta3+ P2.

I cannot reproduce this bug with today's build. Marking WORKSFORME.
works fine on today Linux builds. (Off topic here: if resizing text with keyboard, then the markers are not updated in the menu in modern and classic skin. If someone is interested in this issue, he should write a new bug report, I think. I'm glad so far... ) Tnx a lot.
