Details

Start apprunner, click on "File", "Edit", etc. The word highlights, but no menu appears. There's a little bitty box attached to the bottom of the "File" highlight which is probably an empty menu list. I still get gtkcontainer assertion failures as I move from one menu heading to another. I pulled fresh source and rebuilt this morning. I think the last time I ran apprunner was friday evening or saturday morning, and menus worked then. Menus also work fine in the viewer app.
Component: UE/UI → XP Toolkit/Widgets
I'm looking at the 1999071109 build and I can't repro the problem. I've noticed the little bitty boxes you mentioned before and they are indeed still there. I get the sense that the menus are taking a little longer to draw when switching between them but they are drawing for me. changing component an cc'ing component owner.
Did "cvs update; configure; make clean; make" and tried apprunner again. It still happens. When I click on "File" (or any of the others) the "File" highlights, but instead of the drop-down menu I just get a teeny square maybe 2x2 attached to the bottom of the "File" highlight. I presume this little square is a menu with no menu items in it. As I go from menu to menu I get assertion failures: Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkcontainer.c: line 723 (gtk_container_remove): assertion `widget->parent == GTK_WIDGET (container)' failed. These have been appearing for a few weeks in conjuction with leaving menus, and I think there's another bug report on them, but they're a sign that at some level the menu code thinks it's working. I'm using a modified xpt_link tool (see bug 9596). Xpt_link isn't related to menus...right?

It is not a really UI bug that belong to me. Maybe trudelle has someone can take a closer look later?
