Tabs still flickering madly [ was: Re: Subwindow clipping ]

A while back (Sat, 18 Sep 1999), Andy Piper <andy(a)xemacs.org&gt; wrote: OK, I've finally gotten a simple test case, which I've managed to reproduce on the latest XEmacs 21.2, obtained via cvs update around 3:50PM PST (2300GMT), September 24. To reproduce: * Use these X resources (I don't know if these are really necessary to reproduce the bug, but I'm listing them anyway): Emacs*EmacsFrame.default.attributeBackground: black Emacs*EmacsFrame.default.attributeForeground: white Emacs*EmacsFrame.geometry: 177x55+6+20 Emacs*cursorColor: green Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-Fixed-Medium-O-*-*-*-130-*-*-*-*-*-* * cd to XEmacs's src subdirectory, and run: ./xemacs -q -vanilla * Use M-x load-file to load the attached "foo.el" file. All this file does is set the default face. However, if this file is not loaded, XEmacs works fine. * Type: C-x 3 # split window vertically. C-x o # switch to the right-hand window C-x C-f alloc.c # edit alloc.c C-x o # switch back to left-hand window Once you switch back to the left-hand window, the tab window starts flickering, and never stops. Interestingly, you can still type and execute commands while the flickering is occurring. I've also attached a copy of my "Installation" file. -- Darryl Okahata darrylo(a)sr.hp.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Hewlett-Packard, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.
