Just can't stay away

That old and known ASL requester graphics corruption still exists in 4.1 update 2. F.ex. use Open button of Notepad and use mouse scroll wheel to scroll in the opened file requester to see it.

Yes. On filenote column. Row stripes are not drawn correctly.

@TSK

Do you mean the file "Comment" column?
What do you mean by "not drawn correctly"? Can you describe the fault or, better still, post a screenshot of it, taken with SGrab?

Needless to say, it works fine for many others.

Hmm - this is an rather old bug and it is reproducible by a lot of users (including me...).

Notice to myself: Test wether the crash bug from "multiple-assign in ASL; select and move out of window" is still present in Update 2 or not...

A couple of old pictures showing the problem:

Resized Image

The problem is 100% reproductible: an ASL requester opens, and it's already there

F.ex., execute "RequestFile SYS:" from a shell: everything seems to be fine, but pressing [ARROW DOWN] reveals it is not (the first file entry will be highlighted, but the rightmost column is refreshed only partially); scrolling, as suggested above, makes the problem even more evident.

Looks like a listbrowser.gadget problem to me so anything using listbrowser.gadget should be able to reproduce the rendering issue.

The listbrowser.gadget has been updated a lot and you are running an older version than beta.

In any case, you need to confirm any such issues with a beta tester who can reproduce the issue and file a bug report.

Well, I hope the bug has already been fixed, then

Well, I guess there's not much more I can do besides reporting the problem here (I originally did it at the beginning of the year, in an OS bug-report-specific thread, which probably has received the due attention from testers and developers).

Filenote == Comment.

Picture

Just noticed if I resize the requester window or any of its columns then stripes are drawn correctly and to full width of the listbrowser area. But if I use scroll wheel or window scroll bars immediately after the requester is opened then it draws stripes wrong and sometimes to smaller width than the full listbrowser area.

What happens if you turn row strips off, is the corruption still there?

Well, all I can say is that it seems to work OK with the "current" beta releases. I don't use stripes, so I had to turn them on for the test.

After opening "RequestFile SYS:", I navigated to Prefs/Env-Archive/Sys/ and scrolled it up and down with no problems. That directory had no comments, so I selected my "Downloads" volume which has lots of comments. Still no problem.

I can also resize the window without seeing any corruption, so I think it must have been fixed.

(edit)
If I use RequestFile from Shell then there's not corruption. But if I use Notepad then there is corruption. ???

Are you really sure? Does the line get highlighted entirely?
