Re: [wsjt-devel] Frequency selection dropdown truncated

[Saku]

Hi Chris!

There is a bit same problem with one user of cqrlog. See this thread: 
https://www.cqrlog.com/node/2175 Specially "Reply to #3".
Wsjt-x is using QT where cqrlog is using GTK2 but it still could be same 
symptom (but reverse).


Maybe it is worth of look at a bit deeper from this side of view?

that soon and see what happens in all of the aforementioned desktops.
By the way, this behavior is the same whether I'm using RC5 or 1.9.1, 
so unless something changed between an earlier version and 1.9.1 to 
affect how QT interacts with the window manager, I believe this isn't 
related to how WSJT-X is coded, but, rather, how the QT settings are 
applied in different window managers.


Just sharing observations.

Hi Chris,

that is correct, the window manager (and possibly the graphics driver 
and card) are not rendering display instructions that WSJT-X and the Qt 
framework it is using as expected. There are several layers in play here 
including Qt, OpenGL, the window manager, the graphics driver, the 
graphics card each of which have optimizations to allow smooth, fast, 
and optimal display of high level constructs of the overall GUI.

Hi Chris,

LXDE and KDE use Qt themselves and they do mess with it a bit, as does 
Unity although not as much. Not sure about XFCE but if you see the same 
there then it is probably the same cause. There might be some 
environment variables or configuration variables to force Qt back the 
normal behaviour.

Hi all

I’ve just installed WSJT-X v2.0.0-rc5 under a default Raspbian 9.6 
installation. Everything appears to be working fine, except for the 
dropdown list for frequency selection is truncated (please see 
attached screenshot). Is this a bug?

Hi Greg,

this is highly dependent on the window manager used, for example here is 
a screen capture using my Ubuntu dev system as a remote X-Server to run 
WSJT-X on a Raspberry Pi, showing that it works just fine:

I prefer your chopped off info as mine cuts out the middle.  So 7.078 (or
74) would be 7.07...(40m).  Kinda makes it difficult to remember what you
have.  It has been reported and maybe a fix in v2 release.
