View Full Version : Windowlistitems outside the subwindow

I have a strange problem with the windowlists. Sometimes, not always, when I open a window that contains a windowlist in
a subwindow, it happens that the windowlistitems can also be seen outside of the window itself, overlapping what is underneath.
If I change tabs, the problem is resolved. Do you have any idea what I could look at to understand where the problem might be?

I've seen it from time-to-time, and fixed a couple instances of it happening in the past. I have not seen it recently in a recreate-able scenario.

How did you fix it? It seems it happens when items are loaded in onInit before the windowlist is drawn.
Is there an event that is fired after the window where the windowlist is is drawn?

Is there a way to tell the windowlist or the entire window to redraw itself? When I have that
effect and switch tabs, then return to where the windowlist is, that strange effect disappears

No, I would need a reproduceable test case to be able to investigate in the client.

I’m still struggling to understand the problem and I’ve noticed that it only happens with
“button” objects. Consider that the link on the left is also a button. This is their definition.
Left button
<template name="controlbutton_itemlink">
<buttoncontrol>
<anchored width="20" height="20" />
<icon normal="button_link" pressed="button_link_down" empty="button_link_empty" />
<script file="common/scripts/controlbutton_itemlink.lua" />
</buttoncontrol>
</template>
Right button
<template name="controlbutton_t">
<buttonfield>
<anchored width="20" height="20" />
<state icon="button_e" tooltipres="tooltip_e" />
<state icon="button_n" tooltipres="tooltip_n" />
<state icon="button_o" tooltipres="tooltip_o" />
<state icon="button_r" tooltipres="tooltip_r" />
<state icon="button_s" tooltipres="tooltip_s" />
<state icon="button_z" tooltipres="tooltip_z" />
</buttonfield>
</template>

It's a client issue with the clipping based on scroll views. As I mentioned above, it doesn't happen very often, and I haven't been able to get a consistent, reproduceable set of code to track it down.

Here is a small project. At the link I put below, you can download 2 files, one with the project, the other with the campaign. Once you have compiled the project, let it access the campaign and try the Test function. To me, occasionally, but often, it ends up showing me the list as you see in the image, or even worse. The error only occurs with the “buttons”.
What’s wrong with the project?
