[Bug 734657] Re: OutputScreenlet capping output.

 

I think the correct way would be to cut output not by characters but by
using get_text_height function or at least by count of lines in text
according to the height of the display area. It's nothing complicated
really, just something that needs to be done. Anybody want to fix that?

Title:
  OutputScreenlet capping output.

Status in Screenlets — individual widgets development:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  OutputScreenlet keeps tossing away parts of what it is supposed to
  display.

  I have it show 'sensors -A | tail -12' which should produce:
  coretemp-isa-0000
  Core 0:      +47.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0001
  Core 1:      +49.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0002
  Core 2:      +44.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0003
  Core 3:      +46.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  But instead it skips the first characters, with the following output as a result:
  ore 0:      +47.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0001
  Core 1:      +49.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0002
  Core 2:      +44.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

  coretemp-isa-0003
  Core 3:      +46.0°C  (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
