Summary: winhelp: Popups disappear immediately and are the wrong size Product: Wine Version: 1.2-rc2 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: markk@clara.co.uk
Created an attachment (id=28516) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=28516) ONLCFG.HLP compressed with bzip2
Links in help files which open pop-ups are broken in Wine winhlp32. (These links typically appear in green with a dotted underline.)
What should happen: the popup appears when the link is clicked, and remains present when the user releases the mouse button.
What actually happens: the popup appears, but vanishes when the user releases the mouse button. The popup is the wrong size, and has scrollbars on the right and bottom edges. (It's impossible to use the scrollbars since the popup disappears when the button is released.) Some popups have text missing.
Example: Open the attached ONLCFG.HLP file in Wine winhlp32. Click "How do I?". Click "Letting your Intuit software ...". Click each of the underlined links: dial type, dialing prefix and disable call waiting. Notice there is no text other than the heading in the dialing prefix and disable call waiting popups. Click Tell me more. The popup which appears contains links to other pages in the help file, but it's impossible to select them due to the popup vanishing on mouse release.
Compare with using winhlp32.exe from Windows under Wine to view that file.
