Details

* TITLE/SUMMARY [PP] Text entered into URL field is misaligned, sometimes invisible [yeah, I realize I'm wedging two bugs into one, but they're really minor and at least slightly related... ;] * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0) Launch Viewer 1) Select the "0" (in test0.html), and replace it with 1 2) Resize the window 3) Select the contents of the URL field, press the delete key, and then press the return key 4) Press the backspace key a few times * RESULT - What happened After step 1, the "t" is somewhat doubled, and the "1.html" is offset vertically by 2 pixels. For significant text changes, this renders the URL text completely unreadable. After step 2, the text in the URL field is properly re-aligned (although once again becomes horked if altered.) After step 3, the URL field's contents are empty. After step 4, you will see --- character by character --- the text of "http://" appear as you delete it. ;) - What was expected Text shouldn't be munged when changed, nor should invisible text be present in the URL field: * After step 1 on Win32, the URL text entered is properly aligned with the existing text. * After step 3 on Win32, the "http://" text is visible after presing return. [Note related bug 2247, "[PP] URL text field not updated by Back/Forward arrows, links, Link walker, etc."] * REGRESSION - Occurs On viewer (1.8.98 build for Mac OS) - Doesn't Occur On viewer (1.7.98 build for Win32) viewer (1.8.98 build for Linux) * CONFIGURATIONS TESTED - PowerMac 8500/120 (233 Mhz 604e), 64 MB RAM, 1024x768 (16-bit video), Mac OS 8.5.1

Resolution: --- → WONTFIX
Since the editable fields will be composer-based, marking won't fix. We can readdress if composer can't fit the bill.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Sure. Verified WONTFIX prior to the Ender integration. Thanks, Mike!
