This bug has been around since all of 0.16, maybe from 0.15.x too. I discussed it with Raster some 5 years ago, and he said the focus code would need a complete re-write to solve it, so it wouldn't be fixed until 0.17... The workaround, as already said, is to give focus to another text entry area and then come back. You'll reproduce this easiest if you change screen (virtual or physical screen) and the Mozilla or whatever text area you enter is the first thing to get focus once you're there. Happens every time then. So I stick a terminal next to it =O} To be honest, I think it got slightly worse with 0.16.7, in that a few things started showing this that didn't before - but I changed from Gnome 2.0 to 2.6 around the same time, so I can't be sure... And this is on Solaris/SPARC, so it's not platform specific, either. Ta, Mark. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
