[Bug 1014919] Re: Remarks field not displayed in xlog QSO entry form in Ubuntu 12.04

 

To clarify: The Remarks field "text entry box" is not displayed in the
QSO Entry Form. The text entry box is not drawn or is drawn in a manner
which cannot be properly displayed. Text CAN be entered and saved by
clicking on the Remarks label or just below it.

Title:
  Remarks field not displayed in xlog QSO entry form in Ubuntu 12.04

Status in “xlog” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The Remarks field is not displayed in the xlog QSO Entry form in
  Ubuntu 12.04  Data can be successfully entered by mouse clicking over
  the"Remarks" Field.  Text can be then typed and, although not
  displayed in the QSO Entry form, can be successfully saved. The saved
  text is then visible in the Saved QSO List.

  The same problem is noted using Unity, Gnome, Gnome Classic, Xfce and
  KDE desktops with Ubuntu 12.04 i-386 32 bit desktop version.  My
  computer is a Lenovo T61p Thinkpad with an Intel processor with Nvidia
  graphics chip.  xlog is v 2.0.5-2  I installed a previous version, I
  think 2.0.2 and found the same problem.

  I just created a Linux Mint 13 DVD with Cinnamon Desktop, which is
  built on Ubuntu, and the Remarks entry field is properly displayed
  when xlog is run from the Live DVD.

  I have read a report that this problem has existed since Ubuntu 11.10.

  I looked through the xlog C source code. Though not a skilled C
  programmer, it appears to me that the problem is not in the xlog
  source but maybe in the GTK+ library function which is called to draw
  the display box.

  Is there a workaround for this problem?  Not being able to enter
  Remarks severely limits the use of this program for my needs.

  Thank you.
