Re: Opengl issues after commit 6912/6913

 

I have another issue with 6912 and I'm not sure if it's related. On my OSX box,
the OpenGL canvas cannot be resized larger as of this revision - the actual
active size is 'stuck' at what the application opened at, and any extra space
is filled with flickering graphical garbage.

This only seems to happen on my OSX box, not on Linux (haven't tested on
Windows).

Confirmed by bisection to be precisely 6912/5850b1c that introduced this.
