Subject: Re: [GENERAL] GUI Interface

I'm unable to reproduce this problem with pgAdmin SVN-trunk
built with
wxGTK 2.6.3 on Slackware-current with KDE.

Can anyone else reproduce this bug with a 1.4 build of
pgAdmin with wx
2.6.x?
I can- reliably even- using stock Ubuntu 5.10 with:
gnome-libs 1.4.2
pgadmin 1.4.2
wxWindows 2.6

Any drag-and-drop operation makes X freeze until I terminate pgadmin remotely or from a pty. Let me know how I can help to fix this- obviously, X is waiting for something from pgadmin which it isn't getting. You could use the Ubuntu Live CD if you want to try it out for yourself.

Using source builds of wxGTK-2.6.3 and pgAdmin 1.4.2 (or SVN trunk) I
find that DnD works perfectly on Ubuntu - it even saves fragments in a
text file if I dump it on the desktop which is a pretty neat feature (of
Gnome?) that I never saw before. I've been unable to make it hang itself
and certainly not X.

It took me a while to find out how exactly to reproducte the hang (It would happen to me about once a day when using pgadmin3 heavily on gnome/metacity, but when trying to reproduce it, I couldn't).

You have to select some text, and then _doubleclick_ on the selected part. When I do this, the cursor is changes to some strange shape (
Kind of a upper-left corner with a "+"-sign inside). Ever click is
ignored, but the keyboard remains working (I can edit text in the sql-editor). When I press Alt-f in this state, the File-Menu opens,
the cursor resumes it's normal shape, and clicks are handled again.

If, however, the sql-editor looses focus while in the "funny mode", then
I know of now way to get X working again apart from changing to a console, and killling pgadmin3.

Can either you or Florian try a source build please? Florian should know
how by now :-p, but if needed, you can find some instructions at
http://www.pgadmin.org/download/source.php.
I'm currently build wx, will report if a custom-built pgadmin3 shows the
same behaviour.

greetings, Florian
