VERSION:
    R4

CLIENT MACHINE and OPERATING SYSTEM:
    NA

DISPLAY TYPE:
    NA

WINDOW MANAGER:
    NA

AREA:
    Xaw Text widget

SYNOPSIS:
    When Text widget scrollbars pop up, they occasionally obscure the
    text in the text widget.

DESCRIPTION:
    When a vertical scrollbar is popped up because scrollVertical is
    set to whenNeeded and you go past the bottom edge of the text
    widget, occasionally (it might do it always, I'm not sure) the
    text at the left of the widget is obscured, rather than the text
    widget being redrawn with the text moved over to allow room for
    the scrollbar.
    
REPEAT BY:
    Type some text in an xedit window.  Now, insert returns at the
    beginning of the text until the scrollbar pops up.  It should
    obscure part of the text you have typed.

SAMPLE FIX:
    Unknown.
