Using a release build from 05/08/01 on win2k....(I've been seeing it since new
modern landed though)...
when I start up the browser, my personal toolbar is covered with vertical black
lines making it hard to read the text for each bookmark. If I actually mouse
over the particular bookmark the hash lines go away.
Note: I believe I have 'large fonts' turned on for this machine. that may be a
cause.
also, my url bar has 2 horizontal hash marks just to the left and right of the
urlbar.

I'm seeing this on Win2K ever since modern3 landed.
It affects some other toolbars as well:
Formatting toolbar in message composition window.
Mode toolbar in JavaScript Console window when the window is maximised.
Toolbar in Bookmarks window when it's maximised.

are you using large fonts? As the bug states you have to be using large fonts to
see this. It's pretty easy to reproduce if you use large fonts.
Joe, I don't know if you saw my previous comment but did PDT have a chance to
triage this to .9.2? I wanted them to take a look at this to determine the
severity and they won't see it if you moved it to .9.2 yourself =).

My apologies, I missed the large fonts note on the bug report. I see this with
Large fonts turned on...
Comment 12•24 years ago
|
||
This indeed happends when you have Large fonts set with Window, doesn't happend
with Small fonts.
And it affects maximised windows.
So basically steps to reproduce are:
1. Set your system to use Large fonts.
2. Maximise Mozilla windows (Browser, Bookmarks, JS Console, Composer).
This basically affects most of users who use high-res sceen modes?
Verrrrrrrry off-puting.
Comment 13•24 years ago
|
||
Yes, I've seen on windows 98 (2001-05-22-06-Mtrunk).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to the control panel > Display > Settings > Advanced > FontSize: Large Fonts.
2. Reboot the machine.
3. Launch the browser.
4. Go to Edit > Preferences > Fonts.
5. Select the large fontsize like 72.
Notice that the black hash marks in the personal toolbar for new modern.
Screen shot will attach.

Comment 15•24 years ago

the image i see on win2k is more severe than the win98 case. What I see matches
the first image in this bug where the entire toolbar is covered in vertical
black hash bars to the point that you can't read the text in the personal toolbar.
Comment 16•24 years ago
|
||
The window on the second screenshot is not maximised.
The severe case usually shows itself when you maximise it.
But in other ttoolbars it often covers only part of them.
So maybe this is actually the same thing, but covers tiny part of the toolbar
because of huge font size being selected for the browser.
Comment 17•24 years ago
|
||
To clarify, it appears in non-maximised windows as well.
Just on maximised ones it appears *always*, and in non-maximised ones - it often
appears normally.
Comment 18•24 years ago
|
||
Actually it seems to be dependant on the width of the window.
When you slowly resize it horisontally, for each pixel that you move it, it
disappears/re-appears.

This is definitely a problem with libpr0n. The personal toolbar uses a tiled
background image (chrome://global/skin/toolbar/tb-mid.gif), and apparently on
some configurations libpr0n is having trouble painting this image.

I'm surprised this bug has a 'normal' severity. Let's face it, most people use
800x600 or 1024/768 these days and the latter desktop size is hardly legible
with small fonts. This is not a heavy bug in a technical sense, as everything
works just fine. However, from a marketing point of view, this one is a killer.
Starting up to a hash toolbar gives an impression that is not in line with the
massive amount of work that has been put into Mozilla over the last few years,
or the technical achievements in it.

This is a really annoying bug, since it destroys the nice impression of the
modern theme. The strange thing is that the hash lines go away, when you move
over them, or they are redrawn (by moving another window over it and away
again). But they reappear after minimizing/maximizing(window).

Works for me as of build 2001070404, no more black hash lines.
But now the text is displayed one Pixel higher in original view (after
maximizing) than after updating by moving over the bookmarks. This looks
slightly croocked, if there were overlapping windows, so that part of the text
is higher than the rest.

I am using large fonts at 125% (120dpi). And I don't see it anymore. Strange
that it only seems to work for some now.
Updated mozilla from 0.9.2. to 2001070404 by mozilla installer (installing files
directly over internet). Installed the 0.9.2. from scratch with the talkback
package. Maybe it depends on installation method, although that wouldn't make
much sense. But the regular daily build zip-Files come with directories \bin
which is \Mozilla in the packaged version.

Update (was: works for me as of 2001070404):
The hash marks reappeared today, when I was resizing the browser window. The
behavior seems to depend on horizontal size of the window. If the number of
pixels is odd, then the hash marks appear, if the number is even, the toolbar is
drawn correctly. (Or vice versa, I didn't know how to verify) This is still with
2001070404.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open browser window
2. Resize very slightly in horizontal size (by one)
Can anyone confirm?
Comment 43•24 years ago
|
||
Michael Wesoly: I'm seeing the same weird even/odd behavior as you. Looks
just like the 5/17 screenshot to me. In other words, ugly.
This is on W2k, SP2, Mozilla Build ID 2001071004.
"Large Fonts" turned on for this machine--does anybody do any differently?
Comment 44•24 years ago
|
||
I haven't seen any movement on this one for a while and the 0.9.3 freeze is next
week. Is this bug still for 0.9.3 or is it to be moved out again? If so, too bad.
I was looking forward to prodding my friends and colleagues to move to Mozilla,
but they'll be less than enthousiastic on first sight if this bug is still there.

Confirm with build id 2001071604
I see this for many months but only with the modern theme. I have a NVidia
TNT2Ultra card with detonator3 drivers, not that it should matter.
The hash marks appear mostly at the empty regions of the toolbar but are in a
way unpredictable. I think they used to appear on an older (months) old version
of the sidebar as well.
Mozilla became so good now that this is a major issue for me :)

Comment 48•24 years ago
|
||
I have nVIDIA TMT2 card as well.
Could this be chipset/driver specific? Does anyone with a different chipset sees
this problem?
Additionally, the effect of this bug on Windows ME was totally different from
Windows 2K. It had long horisontal lines in the toolbar, or even TVset-like
noise. Sorry I can't attach a screenshot.
I must agree with ovvldc@netscape.net comment.
This bug is a major reason for me not to go telling my friends that Mozilla
rocks my world and installing it on their PCs. It basically embarrases the
"greatness" of entire browser. I myself at first wanted to stop using Mozilla
until this gets fixed, but learned to get around this bug by manually resizing
browser to full screen, instead of maximising the window.
Comment 49•24 years ago
|
||
I don't think it's a hardware problem. I have the same problem on a Matrox
G400 on Windows 2000.
Comment 50•24 years ago
|
||
It is not hardware dependent. I have using GeForce2 on Win2K with Large Fonts
using Build 2001071604 using the Modern Theme only. I also confirm the previous
observation made on 2001-07-10 that it is a function of the horizontal size. If
you resize your browser horizontally you can get it to work/not-work.
Comment 51•24 years ago
|
||
I am using a Celeron 300, 64 MB RAM, 4MB S3 Virge DX videocard (I don't play
games in my office), NT4 SP6. I honestly doubt this is hardware dependent.
Comment 52•24 years ago
|

I personally think this is the most important-to-fix bug in Mozilla right now.
It is 100% reproducable and probably effects 1/3 - 1/2 of all Windows Mozilla
users. Also, if it effects you, there's no way you're not going to notice it;
it is completely "in your face." Netscape CANNOT (or would be incredibly stupid
to) release a product with this bug in it. It seems like it should be a snap to
fix, so why isn't it?
Also, no one has really commented on the two little hash marks to the left and
right (and slightly below) the URI bubble. These are probably unrelated (since
they never go away), but should also be fixed. Are these in a seperate bug
somewhere?
Comment 53•24 years ago
|
||
With bug 77675 almost out of the way I agree totally. I wonder why this one
doesn't have a PDT+ keyword. The strange thing is that it is apparently confined
to the modern theme. Neither the two stripes James just metioned or the toolbar
mess is evident in the classic theme. There is one vertical stripe at the left
of the toolbar for no apparent reason but I get two in the modern. You can see
it on the screenshots, I suppose.
So if one theme renders fine and the other does not, is this one properly linked
to ImageLib? Could it be regression caused by the new modern theme or something?
I would expect this bug to go to Themes or Skinability or XP: Menus or whatever....

If a theme brings out a bug in ImageLib, it is still a bug in ImageLib. The
problem is in ImageLib, and not the theme, and definitely not in "something."
Changing the theme would only be a temporary hack.
Comment 56•24 years ago
|
||
It is so sad, that this bug is pushed back to the next milestone, again. I
guess, there are more serious bugs, but this one is visible to everyone and not
just some. And - as pointed out before - it makes a desastrous impression on the
state of the whole application.
It is just like buying a new shirt and you discover that it has a HOLE in it.
You wouldn't buy it, even if the vendor would say: Well, but it is a very nice
FABRIC.
Comment 57•24 years ago
|
||
I asked the drivers about the deferrence stragtegy here and got a terse sounding
email back from Chris Blizzard roughly saying 'If it is that important, fix it
yourself. We have other priorities.' So I still don't understand the reasoning.
I haven't coded for over seven years and I never was a C guru. Any takers in the
field to fix this one?

I am amazed that this bug is not even mentioned in the release notes for 0.9.3.
I guess it is just not on any radar screen for really annoying bugs. If I only

Comment 60•24 years ago
|
||
one short of a 10 dupes, adding mostfreq keyword
also adding mozilla0.9.3 and mozilla0.9.4 keywords
hopefully this will get some attention if not for 0.9.3, then for 0.9.4 release
It will be amusing if Netscape 6.1 comes out with this bug staring in people's
faces. :o)
Comment 61•24 years ago
|
||
Maybe modern and nscatfood keywords should be added, since those keywords seem
to match this bug.
Actually, I think it is going to go like this: NS6.1 is cut and built and lands
on the desk of someone in the marketing department. He/she installs, runs it and
on opening of the browser window says something along the lines of 'you must be
*joking*, right?' And that will be the end of it (hence the catfood nomination).
Comment 62•24 years ago
|
||
Hopefully that would be the case.
But I believe it starts with classic skin by default.
AND they would have %50 percent chance of seeing this bug since it depends on
window width.
Maybe the reason drivers haven't been paying much attention to this because they
got enormous monitors with resolution width that just doesn't trigger it?
Either way I can live with workaround for this issue. It's more of a matter of
in-your-face embarrasement of the project.
adding modern keyword.

Comment 64•24 years ago

I believe I found what's going wrong. It's happening in some cases during the
tiling process
When the size is odd, the size of the image to be tiled is miscalculated (in
this case, 2 instead of 1).
I have a proposed patch, in the attachment above

If I understand it right, this patch affects only Windows,
however this bug can be seen on other OSes as well (at least Linux).

Also I don't think it explains why on Windows it's not affecting users who use
Small system fonts?

I ported my changes to all corresponding files on other graphic platforms where
the DrawTile function is implemented. I cannot build/test on other platforms
than win2000, so I hope some people can do it.
Why it only affects large fonts ? The problem is a rounding problem, and the
value to round depends on many things including the width of the rect to tile
into. My explanation is that with small fonts, it's possible that the wrong case
never happens.

Can't reproduce either (with 2001080110). BUT it is interesting, that you don't
have the little hash mark on the lower end of either side of the url-area. (see
attachment from 07/18/01) Maybe that is the same error as you have in your
browserwindow.
Is the problem with horizontal rounding also true for vertical rounding? Antoine
could you check?
Comment 79•24 years ago
|

FYI,
I am running build: 2001070604 with display: True Color 1280 by 960 Small Fonts.
I no longer see hash marks in the toolbar. I can't remember if that was fixed by
an upgraded or when switch my display and font size. I switch font size a while
ago to work around another bug. I can try to upgrade if you want, but I've been
happy with this version, so I've been reluctant to do so.

Comment 81•24 years ago
|

Yeah Michael, the rounding problem definitely exists for vertical coordinates as
well as horizontal. The hash marks in the URL bar come from a vertical rounding
problem, and are fixed by my patch too.
About Sean's problem, what make me think it's the same problem is that the
distance between the marks is exactly the height of the non-tiled original image.
By the way, my patch doesn't fix the 1-pixel higher problem, which come from
somewhere else (text is not tiled)

2001081003/win2k/32bpp/big fonts
the hash marks have disapeared but some new (maybe related) problems have appeared :
when you're partially redrawing some of the elements, the background is
displayed slightly incorrectly (see following attachement).
Steps to reproduce :
* move the mouse over a toolbar item
what you get : a darker blue line just below the item text
expected result : a nice blue gradient in the background
* move another window over the URL bar
what you get : a lighter blue line below the URL bar
expected result : a nice blue gradient in the background

Johan,
Could you please get a newer build and let me know if you are still seeing this

OK. I *am* seeing this on WNT4.0 SP6a, *small* fonts and build 2001-09-17-03
(which was the most up to date nightly I found). As I am not using large fonts,
what I am seeing *may* not be the same bug, but it sure looks *identical* to the
attached screenshots.

I have always seen this behavior (attachment 41609 [details]) on my Win2K work machine,
but have always thought it was due to the image-redrawing problems on ATI Rage
video cards. I've thought it was different than this bug because I've never seen
it in the personal toolbar, just around main toolbar buttons, the url bar, and
scrollbars. I also see it on scrollbar sliders in the Classic theme.
If it's the same problem, count me as another confirmation of it still happening.
My system, if it helps any:
Compaq Deskpro, PIII 500, 256MB RAM
Unknown mainboard
ATI Rage Pro video card
ESS AudioDrive onboard sound
Win2K Service Pack 2
Intel PRO/100 network card
Small fonts (I've tried large fonts too, no change.)
I don't suspect software incompatibilities because Moz was the first application
I installed after the OS.

the right of the screen and my Mozilla window maximized. If I change the
horizontal width the the task bar, I see the patterns change position or disappear.

Aha! Changing my screen resolution made the problem go away.
I usually run at 1280x1024 and get the marks.
Changing resolution to 1024x768 or 800x600 made the marks disappear. (ouch,
800x600 on a 22-inch monitor hurts!)
Changing back to 1280x1024 made them reappear.
I'm running at 96 dpi, by the way.

Pavlov, can you let us know when this would be fixed?
Sol, how many users have their screen resolution set to 1280x1024?
Comment 105•23 years ago

it isn't all 1280x1024 people.. it some subset.. I'm having trouble reproducing
it on my machines.
Comment 106•23 years ago

It seems to be tied to a certain combination of hardware; perhaps it would be
helpful for people who are seeing this bug to list their hardware so we can try
to narrow it down to certain configurations. Of course I'm not a gfx expert so
if this info would not be useful then please say so, so we can avoid unnecessary
noise.
My system specs are in a previous comment from 2001-09-18 11:58
I should also mention that decreasing video hardware acceleration by one notch
clears up the marks for me.

It happens on my machine; I should be in tomorrow or the next day, so you can
take a look then. Dunno if this helps, but my p2t=19 (not the normal 15 that

Speculation, your honor. Also, this is an advocacy killer:

"But that's the only problem with it!"
"Sure..."

> thinking this is a smal percentage of users
Even if you have 5% of users (and how are you going to get such numbers anyway)
having this issue, I don't think it's acceptable because it makes Mozilla look
like ****. Just anybody using W2K on an IBM T21 in 1400x1050x32 (which is
probably the default) like me will have the problem.

Erik, Johan: Jaime's mark of PDT- is a Netscape-only indication, relevant to the
MOZILLA_0_9_4_BRANCH only in this case. That branch is now being managed by
netscape.com for a product release, and it's the PDT's look-out to decide what
fixes go in and what do not.
The PDT- mark says nothing about whether this bug should be fixed in the Mozilla
trunk. It should be fixed if at all possible, so please keep helping with the
diagnosis.

Errr, yes it was a typo, Alex. I meant to ask if bug 93522 was a dupe, not

Comment 117•23 years ago

I am running Win2K (Sp2) using an ASUS V6800 graphics card (GeForce 2) and I do
NOT see this with 0.9.4 using the modern theme in either of the following
configurations:
(a) 1280x1024x32bits - Small Fonts - 96DPI (p2t=15.0)
or
(b) 1280x1024x32bits - Large Fonts - 120 dpi (p2t=12.0)
I used to see it with Build 2001071604 (with the Large Fonts settings) but I
have not had a problem since the original fixes for that landed.
Comment 118•23 years ago

I "may" have responded too soon with my comments that I dont see any odd
behaviours on my Win2K computer at 1280x1024 using 0.9.4. I am seeing odd
behavior in the scroll bar of the newsgroup search window. Is this symptomatic
of this bug or is it more related to bug 83289? I will create an attachment.

The display has been really bad on Linux using the modern theme since the new
graphite color scheme was added (0.9?) This is true only for XFree86 3.3.6
though. XFree 4.0 and 4.1 have no problem. My graphics card is S3-based (968)
so this could be a problem with that driver only.

please leave a comment at bug 105986 saying so.
Comment 128•23 years ago

just my 2 cents:
I'd like to say that maybe its hardware combo/resolution/color depth/driver
problem with S3 graphics and ATI which both have had bad color problems with
certain combinations If I recall: citing: reading several graphics card reviews
over the last few years. Can those affected try every possible resolution/color
depth/OS driver #? and try new drivers for your card to see if this clears up
anything. I'd say its not necessarily a problem in Mozilla but the graphics
hardware/software bit of it, if its only happening with one resolution.. please
check the settings for each resolution that works and doesn't.. Graphics cards
are not perfect, some have some serious issues/drivers didn't fix the problems..
some drivers did fix other cards.. S3 968 is quite old. and its possible no
good driver exists for Linux. There are several other bugs reporting misc
problems with ATI Rage cards.. like slow scrolling, to name 1.
That is all I can offer for now, till we get some feedback on resolution
configurations..

> I'd say its not necessarily a problem in Mozilla
Come on, of all dozens of apps I run on my machine, including graphics apps,
Mozilla is the only one to exhibit such a symptom. Of course it only happens on
certain combinations of software/hardware. And note that most of Mozilla works
fine, only the toolbars, url bar and scrollers are affected. Somebody can find a
machine with the symptom and fix it, there is no need to endlessly speculate
about possible reasons for that bug without looking at the code.

Comment 130•23 years ago

Mozilla 0.9.6, modern theme, leaves black horizontal marks just above the
personal tool bar. It looks as if, the button that gets highlighted when
I mouse over the personal toolbar folder, doesn't get "dehighlighted"
correctly, leaving a mark.
I'm running Windows 2000.

I'm seeing this in Windows 98 using a S3 Savage IX video card (for an
IBM Thinkpad T20). This appears in the modern theme but not in the classic
theme.
It happened occasionally in 0.9.6, but I just installed 0.9.7 and
it is happening _much_ more often -- like 50% of the time.

More info: I'm running at 96 DPI and 1024x768, small fonts. I'm also seeing
Bug 105986 but only a few extra black lines appear -- nothing as
bad as the attachment. My drivers are up to date.
It looks like there is some sort of font scaling that is screwing up.

Unless this is a different bug, it isn't just "black hashmarks" :
looks vaguely like one of the previous sites I visited is showing through
in places where the image library has failed to paint the scrollbar
Comment 138•23 years ago
|
||
Again, I don't know if this is related to this bug, or attachment 72059 [details],
but it appeared at around the same time, to the best of my recollection:
The messed up area is painted in a similarly patchy fashion - it was out
of the viewable window when I loaded the page, but when I scrolled down,
the red areas were only partially painted.
Comment 139•23 years ago

I used to see the black hash marks in the title bar, but I am no longer seeing
them, and haven't for a while...
Comment 140•23 years ago

Same here, I don't see those anymore. I updated several drivers on my IBM laptop
(including I think the graphics card's) in the meanwhile, but I also switched to
the Classic theme for a while so I cannot really correlate.

What graphic cards are you people using (all you with problems). I've got access

The lines on the personal bookmark bar can be reproduced by minimizing and then

dissapear.
Also, the lines on the vert. scrollbar can be reproduced by scrolling a few
times using the scroll arrows.

Dale: You may want to try upgrading your video drivers (comment #140), lowering
your hardware acceleration a notch, or switching to 24 bit color depth (that
last work-around apparently works for some people).
