two database repaint error

Hi All,

With Lotus Approach, when you have two databases open inside (one) Approach
(not reproducible with only one) and you focus another running Linux program
(like Firefox) on top of Approach, then you pull Approach back into focus (the
foreground), the database page does not repaint.  If you mouse click where the
fields are suppose to be, you will get that field back.

Workaround: grab the lower right corner and re-size the windows as small as you
can get it, then re-size it back.

What a pain in the neck!

Many thanks,
-T

Hi Vitaliy,

I realize this is your call on the severity, but I have been using Approach
for years in XP with several databases open.  Usually I am viewing only one at
a time, as shown in the attached picture, but sometimes with several showing at
once.

This bug, along with minimized icons that won't open, etc. makes using
Approach in Wine unbearably annoying and atrociously difficult to use.

Again, I realize this is not my call, but would you please consider
upgrading the "severity" back to "normal".

Many thanks,
-T

Definition of severity:
http://bugs.winehq.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#bug_severity

Minor - For minor loss of functionality, or other problem where an easy
workaround is present

If anything this is more like Trivial - For a UI glitch that doesn't affect
running of a program.

Hi Vitaliy,

Tearing ones hair out trying to use Approach would apply to 
at least minor.  I am concerned that too low a severity will
get this bug thrown on the dust bin.  It is really, really
driving me crazy.  Would you consider at least "minor", as it
seems to perfectly describe the problem?  There is

1) loss of functionality (you can not see any of the fields),

2) a workaround is present (grabbing the bottom, right and sizing it small then
sizing it large), and

3) the user is going out of his mind (and he whines a lot too)

Many thanks,

Confirming bug.

It is a problem with a clumsy work-around present, therefore the severity is at
least minor. Classifying as "normal" could also be, since the work-around does
not work very well here. I have to fiddle with the size a number of times
before the core function of the program (database program showing database
records) is restored.

It looks that this bug is the fourth one that you reported that involves the
MDI windows of Approach (others are 18159, 18233 and 18234). These all may be
related.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 6
months. Is this still an issue in current (1.1.33 or newer) wine?

Hi Austin,

I am running 1.1.33.  There is no symptom change.  Is there any chance of
getting this looked at in 1.1.34?

Upgrading my video drivers fixed this:

$ rpm -qa *nvidia*
nvidia-x11-drv-256.35-1.el5.elrepo
kmod-nvidia-256.35-1.el5.elrepo

These are availble from 
   http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/
and

http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/i386/RPMS/elrepo-release-0.1-1.el5.elrep...

But, before doing this, you have to uninstall dkms and dkms-nvidia-x11.  I
suggest dropping to run level 3 to do this (init 3) and reboot afterward.  Also
read this first:

Hi Dmitry,

The video driver I used to correct this bug is a "beta" or "testing" driver. 
Are you able to tell is this bug was caused by 1) the too aggressive use of new
functions in a "Test" drivers or 2) the correction of a defect in the "general
release" driver.  If the answer is 1), then wine needs to back off of using
"testing" functions and revert to "general release" functions.  If 2), then
this bug is truly invalid.

Did you test that the painting really has been fixed by a driver upgrade
and not a change in Wine?

It did not work under rc7 until I upgraded my video drivers.

And, other repaint problems are still in effect, such as 21855.  And an
Approach problem I have yet to report where typing in a find field disappears
and reappears (the letter are there, they just do not show).

Are you able to tell if this problem was a defect in the video driver or Wine
getting too happy with "test" portions of the new video driver?

I don't have this application and can only make assumptions after reading
your comments. If the driver update fixes this problem then it looks like
it was a driver bug.
