redraw problem in safari 4 ?
Hi,
I was checking out the demo samples and noticed what looks to be a
redraw problem. Basically what i did was to open the kitchen sink
demo, let it init and then click on the Menu link (to see the menu
examples). Its hard to explain what i saw so i'm attaching a
screenshot (hope it comes through!). Is this a mac related issue
perhaps ?
I also noticed similar problems under firefox, mostly when using the
applet scroll bars (they appear when the browser window is smaller
than the applet window)
Other than that : GREAT stuff :) I'm really looking forward evaluating
Pivot for a few projects here at work.
Thanks and good luck with the incubation process !

>On FF (mac) i am still having some problems though
This is a known issue with Firefox on the Mac. We suspect that it has something to do with this:
http://javaplugin.sourceforge.net/Readme.html
But we are hoping that it will be fixed after J6u12+ becomes available on OSX:

Hi Todd,
The problem indeed goes away when the browser window is larger than
the applet window. On FF (mac) i am still having some problems though,
see attached screenshot which is what i see (sometimes) upon initial
load. When i then resize the browser window slightly it goes away and
all widgets are properly visible again.
Thanks,
Jorg

http://cwiki.apache.org/PIVOT/kitchen-sink-demo.html displays fine now
on Safari 4, I could not get the previous redraw problems to appear
again, great !

Indeed, i have 1.6.0_07 on my mac which is causing the problem
apparently, so we'll have to wait for J6u12 as Greg points out.

I just installed 160_13 on my winxp parallels instance:
http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/tmp
http://cwiki.apache.org/PIVOT/kitchen-sink-demo.html
both display fine now. Rolling back to _07 jre I was able to trigger
redraw problems again.

Oh, sorry, it's in the zip.
Forcing a refresh (like changing the current window, then returning to
that of the browser) then all is refreshed right.

Hi to all,
under Windows XP with Java 6 Update 13, the copyArea2 works good under
Firefox 3.0.9 and IE7, but the Kitchen sink demo gives (both on
Firefox, and IE) some graphics artifacts after scrolling with Pivot
scrollbars (and only sometimes scrolling with the page scrollbar), as
seen in the attached screenshot.
In the Web Start version, all works good, and scrolling seems faster.
Tell me if i can do other tests or help.

I've set up a test case for this issue that I'm using in my bug report
to Apple (and to Sun if this is reproducible in Windows using the Sun
plug-in). It's at:
Demo: http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/bugreports/copyArea2/
Source: http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/bugreports/copyArea2/Test.java
With respect to this issue, we should use this URL from now on, since
IMO this issue should be debugged in a vacuum, without Pivot as part
of the equation. I'm also sending this to the dev list since this
discussion has turned into more of a developer discussion.

Ok, there have been several issues and questions raised, so let's hit
them one by one.
1) The Safari issue. It sounds like you confirmed that we were
talking about the same issue. I just checked in a fix that disables
the optimization for Mac OS X users -- just until Apple fixes the
issue with the plug-in. You should be able to run the demo off the
wiki on Safari with no problems now.
2) The FF/Mac issue. Greg covered this very well, so I'll just refer
to his response.
3) The IE/Win 1.6.0_07 issue. When you have time, can you try three
things for us? First, I updated the code at
http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/tmp, so can you try it again in IE
there? Also, can you try the public demo at
http://cwiki.apache.org/PIVOT/kitchen-sink-demo.html in IE as well,
since the code there is different. Finally, are you able to install
1.6.0_10 or later on this machine and see if the problem goes away?
4) The applet scrollbars going away. When the kitchen sink demo comes
up, it doesn't have any scrollbars within the Pivot app because only
one rollup is expanded by default. Expand a few other rollups to
introduce scrollbars, then scroll around within the and within the
browser to see if there are any paint issues.
Thanks for the QA! It's infeasible to test every configuration out
there, so we rely on feedback of this kind :)

Jorg,
This is very helpful. I have a couple of questions:
- Is this behavior consistent? Does it happen every time you scroll an area out of and back into view?
- Do you have 1.6.0_10 or later available? If so, would it be possible to determine if this also happens in IE in that configuration?
Thanks!

Just tested with this version on IE7, winxp and JRE version 1.6.0_07
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM, see attached screenshot. You'll see some
white horizontal and vertical stripes, they appear on parts that were
moved outside of the visible screen area, then brought back.

When you say "applet scrollbars", are you referring to the ones that appear inside the applet and look like Pivot, or do they look like native scroll bars?

Re: redraw problem in safari 4 ?

Indeed it's much better on this version, but the main difference seems
to be that the applet scrollbars are not appearing anymore am i
correct ? So then i'm using the browser scrollbars to see the full
applet, which is also fine probably.
I can do some more thorough testing over the weekend if you want.

As another test Jorg, I've posted a version of the Kitchen Sink demo
that does not include this optimization. Can you try it out in Safari
and see if it behaves better for you? I'd just like to confirm what
is causing the issue you're seeing:
http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/tmp/
Thanks,

p.s. Unfortunately, there are several known issues with Pivot in
FF/Mac. According to Apple, the 6u10 Mac port should involve a
re-write of the FF/Mac plug-in, and so we're kind of waiting for Snow
Leopard hoping those problems go away :)

Hi Jorg,
Thanks for the great feedback! It looks like the redraw problem you
ran into is a known issue with the Java plug-in on Safari (versions 3
and 4). We've filed a bug with the Apple Developer Connection (issue
6820481), so we hope to have it resolved soon. If there's no traction
in the near future, we have a workaround that we will apply to Pivot
1.2 to prevent this issue in a released Pivot version.
Note that Pivot 1.1 should not exhibit this issue -- it's related to a
paint optimization that we applied after the 1.1 release. Thus, you
should be able to use Pivot 1.1 for your work projects and not suffer
from this issue.
As a test that we are talking about the same issue, can you see if
this happens when the Safari window is larger than the applet? If the
problem goes away when the Safari window is larger than the applet,
then it is indeed the issue that we've filed to Apple (see
http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/bugreports/copyArea/ for a concise
demonstration of the issue -- source code at
http://people.apache.org/~tvolkert/bugreports/copyArea/Test.java)
Let us know if we can be of further assistance.
