BlackBox Component Builder Forums

I have had a problem rendering a List Control reported to me; has anyone else observed this?
An example image is below.

This problem was observed using Wine v2.4 on Linux.

can it be reproduced?

Sorry Ivan, I don't understand. Is your comment how to repeat the problem, or how to avoid it?

And, do you know if the problem only occurs using Wine/Linux, or can it also occur with Windows?

How to repeat. There is no problem in Windows.

With wine 1.4.1 I have no such problem,
with wine 1.8.7 I can reproduce it.

It looks like the list box is shrunken and pixels below remain as garbage.

When testing other operations under wine I noticed another wine problem (under both versions):
If after startup of BlackBox the "Edit->Preferences" dialog is opened and the
"Default font..." button is pressed followed by "Cancel" then there is a TRAP.
This is clearly a bug in wine but in this case a work around would be easy.

<<EDITED>>
The bug only appears when there is no printer installed in Linux.
The error code indicates that there is no printer and that error code is not cleared in some of the
common dialog functions when the Cancel button is pressed.
The bug also appears in the Attributes-> Color..., Attributes->Font..., and Attributes->Typeface... dialogs.
