Hello Alistair.

I'm working on Bug #47489
"The appearance of configurable options in Audacity is broken"

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47489


Basically the bug is that comboboxes are displayed with the wrong height.

I see that I may have written the test in the wrong way.  I wrote my test in Visual Studio on Windows.   It demonstrates the error by honing in on some api calls.   However, I just read the article linked below under the heading "Writing Tests".  Is that the way I should go about writing my test?

Hi John,

What bug are you referring to?

If the patch isn't too big, sent it the list without a signoff and a comment asking for a review.

And/Or attach it the bug report, however reviews aren't done on bugzilla patches, but the code wouldn't be lost either.

Regards

Alistair.

Hello everyone,

I was able to figure out the source of a bug for one of the bugs listed in Bugzilla.  I wrote a little demo app with Windows API functions to show it.   I hesitated to fix the problem in Wine, because the code is complex and therefore wasn't sure what the ramifications would be.

How do I go about presenting this to those who deal with bugs?  

Many thanks for any feedback!

Regards,
John Alway
