Query gives reduced property window in schematic

When particular object is queried the property window is small and we
need to resize every alternative time. Also during that time the icfb
hangs for few seconds. we started facing the problem since our recent
linux migration. The problem exists both in KDE and Gnome environments.
Any help?

 

This is known at Cadence and they post a Solution for this on
Sourcelink # 11139956.

Here it is it's a kind of wrapper SKILL around the 'schHiObjectProperty'
function.

This bug has been reported against KDE. I have never seen it with Gnome.

What window manager are you using with Gnome?

Hi Pete,

We use sawfish as window manager in Gnome. We do have the same problem
in this too.

Thanks

That's interesting. I've tested here at Cadence using sawfish and have not
seen the problem. We've only seen the problem with KDE and twm.

The other window managers I tested that did not show the problem were mwm
(Motif), dtwm (CDE), metacity (GNOME 2.0), olwm (OpenLook) and olvwm
(OpenLook).

I've confirmed that we are making multiple resize calls, and with KDE it just
ignores the final resize(s). I've confirmed with the debugger that the final
resize call is the correct size, and due to the complexity of our software
there is no easy way to ensure that only one resize call is made.
