Strange popup hint effect
« on: October 12, 2012, 11:42:42 am »
A user has reported an odd effect with popup hints, as shown in the snapshot below. He says that the effect is repeatable, but no-one else has reported it and I can't reproduce it myself. He says that it happens with the Linux version of the program but not the (identical) Windows version.

I think this is a window redraw issue on the user's system, but I'd be interested to know if anyone else has seen this.

I remember such redraw problems with earlier versions of KDE4 (KDE4.2 ~three years ago). But it was general problem, not only with Lazarus. What distro it is (what window manager) ?
Lazarus 2.3.0 (rev main-2_3-2863...) FPC 3.3.1 x86_64-linux-qt Chakra, Qt 4.8.7/5.13.2, Plasma 5.17.3
Lazarus 1.8.2 r57369 FPC 3.0.4 i386-win32-win32/win64 Wine 3.21

He's using Fedora 17 with KDE 4.9.2.
