I then have to move the mouse slightly, and only then does the menu open. Further, tooltips in a menu sometimes don't appear correctly at first. They appear clipped and incomplete, but a further mouse move makes them redraw correctly. All other GTK apps work normally. I have created a youtube video which illustrates the above :- http://youtu.be/Ix1vO3T84ZI This affects version 24.3.1, installed in ubuntu 14.04, both on 32 and 64 bit installations. I also downloaded the source, also version 24.3.1, and compiled that, with the same results. A workaround is to configure with "--with-x-toolkit=athena". This toolkit's menus don't suffer from the same problems, and work fine.

In the future, please refrain from reporting two problems in one bug report, make two separate bug reports instead. Did you starte emacs with -Q? You do not seem to run vanilla Ubuntu, but rather have another theme/window manager. Please give the details of that (i.e. desktop environment, theme, window manager).

Now that I try that I see that the problem is somewhat masked by the blinking cursor. Normally, I don't have a blinking cursor - I have (blink-cursor-mode 0) in my init file. When starting with -Q, then the cursor blinks, and the redrawing of the blinking cursor obviously also causes the missing menus and half-drawn tooltips to be redrawn. So with -Q, I just see a short - but still perceivable - delay before the menus/tooltips are drawn correctly. If I then enter (blink-cursor-mode 0) in the scratch buffer, then I see the bug as described originally. So please try with (blink-cursor-mode 0) and hopefully you will be able to reproduce the bug. I take your point about filing two separate bugs in one report, but the missing menu and missing tooltip appear (at least so far as I can see) to relate to the same underlying problem, namely a failure to redraw the screen correctly. Regarding the window manager, it is fvwm. However, I have just tried running emacs in Xephyr, without any window manager at all, and the problem still occurs.

The result is that I can still see the menu problem, but not the tooltip problem. In fact the tooltips look quite different on Unity, and are using transparency effects, so perhaps that is why. Another slight difference - if I leave the pointer stationary over the menu item, then after 3 or 4 seconds the sub-menu finally appears - with fvwm/no window manager this does not happen, and the menu remains absent until the mouse is moved. Anyway, here is another video to show the menu problem under Unity :- http://youtu.be/e1s2RXsqJo0 From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Fri Jul 11 12:48:44 2014 Received: (at 17926-done) by debbugs.gnu.org; 11 Jul 2014 16:48:44 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:53671 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.80) (envelope-from ) id 1X5dzz-0006nU-Qp for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 11 Jul 2014 12:48:44 -0400 Received: from mailfe02.swip.net ([212.247.154.33]:54931 helo=swip.net) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.80) (envelope-from ) id 1X5dzs-0006mw-MU for 17926-done@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 11 Jul 2014 12:48:36 -0400 X-T2-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.8 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_50 Received: from hosdjarv.se (account mj138573@tele2.se [46.59.42.57] verified) by mailfe02.swip.net (CommuniGate Pro SMTP 5.4.4) with ESMTPA id 516727999; Fri, 11 Jul 2014 18:48:24 +0200 Message-ID: <53C01557.9000704@swipnet.se> Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2014 18:48:23 +0200 From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Jan_Dj=E4rv?= User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/24.6.0 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Robert Parlett , 17926-done@debbugs.gnu.org Subject: Re: bug#17926: Menu and tooltip glitches using GTK toolkit References: <53B5D5F1.5010109@zen.co.uk> <53B68AD4.10905@swipnet.se> <53B695C4.8090004@zen.co.uk> <53B6C75B.1010806@swipnet.se> <53B6DB29.9060202@zen.co.uk> In-Reply-To: <53B6DB29.9060202@zen.co.uk> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Spam-Score: -0.0 (/) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: 17926-done X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.15 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sender: "Debbugs-submit" X-Spam-Score: -0.0 (/) 2014-07-04 18:49, Robert Parlett skrev: > Well I tried this on another machine with the Unity desktop, using a new user > account.

So whatever it was, it is gone now. Jan D.
