Menubar problems with OpenGL program

[Ryan May]

Hi,

I have a problem with the menubar in an OpenGL program I use,
WeatherScope.  With Wine-20050211 and newer, the menubar is overdrawn by
the OpenGL background color.  I can still get the pop up menus to appear
if I click the area where the menu should be.  Also, if I switch focus
to a different app, like an Xterm, the menubar will appear.  It appears
that clipping is correct, because the OpenGL drawing in the program does
not appear where the menubar should be, only the background color.  This
problem does not appear in wine versions before 20050211.

Anyone have any clues where to go with this?

(WeatherScope is available at:

Hi Ryan, thanks for posting a note.  Can someone who has a little bit of 
free time please take a look at this?  I have helped him as far as I 
can, and the only thing I can think of now is to either have him do a 
regression test, ask someone else to do it (since I still dont have a 
linux-capable box), or have someone on the window-rewriting team take 
time out of their day to look at it, and that is the least preferred..

As far as I know this is a known problem after the window rewrite. It
required a hack to work before the rewrite. The hack was removed and
now this happens with all opengl program with things like menubars.
