Another Mac bug

I have another report for a SDL bug which I can’t reproduce :frowning:

Short version : upon restoring a window, it restores as a 1-inch-high
window, not a 800x600 window - http://www.mrio-software.com/macbug.jpg

The test case (source & binary) -
http://www.mrio-software.com/MacBugDemo.dmg.sit

The test case opens a 800x600 window, goes fullscreen, iconifies the
window
and opens an internet browser. When you click the icon in the dock, it
restores to the narrow window seen in the picture.

That weird sequence of actions mimics the action of some of the buttons
in FaceIt ( http://www.mrio-software.com/demos/faceit_demo.dmg.sit ) in
particular the BUY NOW button and the VIEW ONLINE HIGHSCORES button. It
probably happens without opening a browser window but I wanted to
reproduce
the case as exactly as possible.

This uses SDL 1.2.6 (I haven’t switched my projects to 1.2.7). I’ll try
to test it with 1.2.7 ASAP. I’m pretty sure he uses OS X 10.3.

Thanks,

Gabriel,

I can’t reproduce this either (10.3.3). Do you have windowshade X
installed (looks like it from the screenshot). If so try disabling it
and let me know what happens.> Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2004 11:01:05 -0300
