Description of problem: First, I load several sets are loaded in a graph; when I choose a set and when I select hide (with the pop-up menu), the scrolled window shrinks definitively to one line (which is boring for further manipulations on other sets). This probleme is the same if I select the menu Data/evaluate Expression and if I work on several sets. The problem is the same if I recompile grace for the source. It is independent of the architecture (i386, x86_64) I tried to apply sloppy patches on the code, but they did not cure completely the problem. The probleme seems to be related to a new behavior of the openmotif library, but my knowledge of OpenMotif is not sufficient. I installed a binary version (working on FC4) which displays the same problem on FC5 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I tried to change a line in src/motifutils.c XtSetArg(args[1], XmNscrollBarDisplayPolicy, XmSTATIC); in XtSetArg(args[1], XmNscrollBarDisplayPolicy, XmCONSTANT); With the dirty patch , the scrolled window has two lines after a first operation on sets, but shrinks in one line aftter a second operation How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
I guess that this is related with: http://bugs.motifzone.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1331 This seems to be a bug in motif and not grace, although it clearly affects grace usage.
Created attachment 128304 [details] openmotif rpm file (modified)
Thank you for finding the bug. I patched the openmotif src rpm file and I added the patch. Xmgrace works very well. I do not know if my rpm file is built with the state of the art and I do not know the maintainer of openmotif. If you can forward my mail and the package for an update of openmotif, it will be great Sincerely yours, Pascal
You beat me reporting the bug to the right component. I will let this bug opened while the issue is not fixed in openmotif package.
Since grace does not use openmotif anymore I will close this bug. This problem does not apply anymore.
