Description Harald Sitter 2010-09-28 09:38:12 UTC

Version:           0.6 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

If one uses more tabs than can fit on the screen (i.e. rekonq starts adding the navigation arrows) and one tab changes flickerish repainting of all tabs will occur.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Add more tabs than can fit on the screen. Add a new tab or simply reload one.

Actual Results:  
All tabs start wild flickering.

Expected Results:  
No flickering or visible changes whatsoever should happen on existing tabs

Compiler: cc
Graphics driver: fglrx

actually as far as I can tell this is a Qt/KDElibs issue, since rekonq plainly uses those for the tabbar…

what to do with this bug? close it as upstream? Can someone please report this issue then to the corresponding bugtracker?

Targetting to 0.7, Andrea could you please have a look and advise ?

Comment 4 Andrea Diamantini 2011-10-31 10:28:54 UTC

I think there is nothing we can do about this. Targetting as upstream.
