>Description:
When a menu is displayed over top of a form the menu is not properly
drawn on screen. Parts of the underlaying form window shows through
the menu items whitespace.
>How-To-Repeat:
Setup stdscr, create a form on a sub_win post the form, create a menu
on another sub_win post the menu, refresh the menu items will have
parts of form characters in menu item display.
Following code does the above. Input moves program through stages.
#include <form.h>
#include <menu.h>
FORM *form;
MENU *menu;
ITEM *items[11];
FIELD *fields[11];
WINDOW *f_sub, *m_sub;
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char buf[31];
int i, rows, cols;
initscr();
cbreak();
noecho();
/* create form items */
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
fields[i] = new_field(1, 10, i / 2, 12 * (i % 2), 0, 0);
snprintf(buf, 31, "Field %d", i);
set_field_buffer(fields[i], 0, buf);
}
/* create form, create form_sub, post form, refresh form_sub */
fields[i] = NULL;
form = new_form(fields);
scale_form(form, &rows, &cols);
f_sub = newwin(rows, cols, LINES / 2 - rows / 2, COLS / 2 - cols / 2);
set_form_sub(form, f_sub);
post_form(form);
wrefresh(f_sub);
getch();
/* setup menu items, with one long one to make others have whitespace */
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
if (i != 5)
snprintf(buf, 31, "Item %d", i);
else
strcpy(buf, "A slightly longer item");
items[i] = new_item(buf, "");
}
/* create menu, create menu_sub, post menu, refresh menu_sub */
items[i] = NULL;
menu = new_menu(items);
scale_menu(menu, &rows, &cols);
m_sub = newwin(rows, cols, LINES / 2 - rows / 2, COLS / 2 - cols / 2);
set_menu_sub(menu, m_sub);
post_menu(menu);
wrefresh(m_sub);
getch();
endwin();
}
>Fix:
A likely work around would be to unpost the form before posting the
menu.
