Description

Identify a feature. Close the identify dialog. Repeat. The dialog creeps up by what appears to be the height of the window title bar.

This is a problem on Windows, not tested on other platforms.

History

#1 Updated by Gavin Macaulay - almost 18 years ago

Works ok on Linux. Is this really critical?

#2 Updated by Gary Sherman almost 18 years ago

It's critical because eventually the dialog walks its way off the top of the screen and the user has to battle to get it back. And you may not notice whats going on until the title bar is off the screen.

#3 Updated by anonymous - almost 18 years ago

This looks like a bug in the latest version of Qt for Windows (I've seen it before...)

#4 Updated by Gavin Macaulay - almost 18 years ago

Interestingly, on a different linux setup (display via an X server on windows), the identify results dialog box goes down with each iteration.

#5 Updated by Gary Sherman almost 18 years ago

Thats going to make it fun to fix. This must be a Qt bug since the same code worked fine previous to recent Qt (at least I think it did).
