GtkText bug (GTK 1.0.6)

["Damon Chaplin" <DAChaplin email msn com>]

Hi,

There seems to be a rather nasty bug still in GtkText (GTK 1.0.6).

This can cause Glade (GUI builder) to hang as users edit properties using
a GtkText. The bug report is below. I've tried it and I get the same problem
(though not with GTK 1.1.2).

Glade uses very small GtkText widgets - 2 lines high, and fairly narrow,
so text wraps around quite a bit. I resized the GtkText widget in testgtk
and after a bit of messing about that froze as well. It happens after
pressing Return to split the first line in two and then moving the cursor up.

Glade bug report:

I make a dialog window and put in a label. Then I change the value of
the label1 to:

Do you really want to quit without saving you data first?

I now realise that I need to put this on two line. I therefore press
return after quit. I then try to go to the beginning of the
line. Suddenly the program just hangs. I have tried to reproduce the
error and it comes every time. That is, some times I have to remove the
newline and do it again.
