[Bug 364980] [NEW] Changing fonts creates display gap

 

Public bug reported:

I changed the font under Settings-Choose Display Font from the default
to FreeMono, size 10. It was a bigger font than previously so what
occurred was my text was outside my window.. so I went to change it to
something smaller. I changed it from that to MonoSpace, size 8. Then
when I hit ok and closed the settings, I was left with this big gap that
continued even after more text arrived at my screen. An image of it is
attached. A few minutes later after I minimized Mudlet the problem
seemed to go away.

Mudlet is current version from GIT as of Wednesday April 22, 1:55AM
Eastern time. However, the top bar says "Mudlet beta 9 - built:
April-17-2009". Not sure how to get revision from git, pull before I
compiled this gave me:
