What were you trying to do?
Scroll around in xrn, xdsc...
What's wrong:
I have only been able to reproduce this on the rt to an rt
server. to a decmips server work fine. haven't tried vax to vax or rt
to vax...
if you have windows positioned like:
---------
| aother|
| window|
---------
|xrn|
|---|
where the scrolled window of xrn or xdsc is mostly obscured vertically,
then click the right button on the scroll bar, only part of the
scrolled window refreshes. the half of the window below the mouse
horizontal line does not refresh (the contents do actually change as you
can see if you try to highlight something..
For example, if the list read:
Unread news in clari.news.gov.taxes 2 articles + 0 old
Unread news in clari.news.group.jews 5 articles + 5 old
Unread news in clari.news.hot.east_europe 14 articles + 48 old
Unread news in clari.news.hot.iraq 2 articles + 0 old
Unread news in clari.news.hot.ussr 32 articles + 1 old
Unread news in clari.news.interest.quirks 13 articles + 1 old
if i clicked right by clari.news.hot.iraq, the result might look like:
Unread news in clari.news.flash 1 article + 0 old
Unread news in clari.news.goodnews 2 articles + 1 old
Unread news in clari.news.gov.corrupt 5 articles + 3 old
Unread news in clari.news.gov.taxes 2 articles + 0 old
Unread news in clari.news.hot.ussr 32 articles + 1 old
Unread news in clari.news.interest.quirks 13 articles + 1 old
The last two remained the same.
This only happens when the majority of the window is obscured from the top.
