3610.0. "known polyline bug in Xcfb server" by MUNICH::WENDL () Thu Nov 08 1990 06:24

    In the Ultrix 4.1 Release Notes:
    "2.8.6 Xcfb Server
    Under the Xcfb Server, endpoints of zero-width capped polylines may be
    drawn in the wrong location if the window is partially clipped. When
    this bug manifests itself, apparently random singleton points will be
    seen. The workaround is to ensure that the window is not clipped(...)."
    
    I guess one of my customers has run into this problem (or a variant?),
    so:
    Is this also true for 4.0?
    Has UWS 2.X Y been correct?
    Is their a code example for the described problem? (Please mail to me!)
    Does anybody know of another workaround?
    Will their be a patch? (When? Where?)
    
    Thousand Thanks in advance!!!
