Naive attempts to avoid the lines by "clearing too much" result in other parts of the display getting trashed. I've chosen to leave the lines there as a visible reminder of the problem. But it's equally there in recent updates of Mozilla Firefox for X11, they just chose to clear parts of neighboring display, which is less blatant but still pretty ugly to my mind. Patches which fix the problem correctly or information about how to get Xft to tell the truth about the text extent that it is actually going to write would be very welcome. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
