-- If a popup wxMenu is destroyed after its parent window has been
- destroyed, we get the message "Object XXX does not have windowed
- ancestor".
- Workaround: delete the menu before deleting the window on which it
- was popped up.
- Possible fix: call menu->DestroyMenu() before deleting the window,
- if the window knows about the menu that was last popped up (hard
- to know this with confidence).

+BUG NUMBER: 2
+SHORT DESCRIPTION: Misc. Motif bugs
+DETAILS:
- In wxGrid, cell highlight is not drawn/erased properly.
- Setting the size of a hidden window may show that window.
-- Motif-specific wxImage functions not yet implemented.
+- wxRadioBox sometimes doesn't show (e.g. in controls sample).
+
+- Can't set the colours for the buttons in the file selector, for
+ some reason.
+
+- On SGI IRIX 6.4, XtDestroyWidget in ~wxWindow causes a crash in
+ some cicumstances. This is being looked into. Meanwhile, a
+ possible workaround is to remove the final XtDestroyWidget line in ~wxWindow
+ (window.cpp). This will mean that child windows will only get
+ destroyed when frames and dialogs are destroyed, so dynamic subwindow
+ deletion may not work properly.
+
+- There are reports that scrolling can cause crashes under Lesstif.
+ This is probably a Lesstif bug.

+SHORT DESCRIPTION: Dialog Editor issues
+DETAILS:
+Dialog Editor could be more user-friendly. Controls are hard to
+size and position accurately. No way of changing tab order
+except by editing .wxr file.

+BUG NUMBER: 4
+SHORT DESCRIPTION: Appending a menuitem with negative id causes menu not to be shown
+DETAILS: I haven't tested it throughly, though it happens when appending a submenu
+WORKAROUND: Add dummy id number even for menuitems which don't require them (submenus for example)

+BUG NUMBER: 5
+SHORT DESCRIPTION: no vertical space inside wxHTML
+DETAILS: We are working on making a demonstration of projects we do here
+using Python & wxWindows & HTML (wxPython/wxHTML thus). We 'd like to
+have the opportunity to specify vertical space, eg <br><br>, or <p><p>
+in HTML. These constructs currently do not work. I looked in the source
+code (nice job btw), but am not sure where to hack the solution. I
+am willing to discuss this in more detail.
+WORKAROUND: Create a transparent gif of 1x1 pixel and use width & height
+to fool the renderer

+DETAILS: I am a new user. I downloaded setup.exe and setup.wXX then ran the install program. It prompted me for disk two which puzzled me. There was no obvious solution.
+FIXED+BY:
+IDENTIFIED+BY: William Deans
+PLATFORMS: wxWindows
+SHORT+DESCRIPTION: misnamed setup.wXX files prevents install
+Submit: Submit
+WORKAROUND: The problem seems to be that the default download name for the setup.wXX files is not 'setup.wXX' but instead 'setup.wXX..wXX' Every new user who installs could change these names... but why not simply change them on the server? (I was using IE 5 under Windows 98)

+DETAILS: Around line 1234 or the common/docview.cpp file following code exists...
+
+if (!theTemplate)
+ theTemplate=templates[FilterIndex] ;
+
+The problem is tat FilterIndex is one based and the templates array is zero based. The correct
+thing might be to use FilterIndex-1 as the index. Else the following scenario will
+cause a crash.
+
+1. Use the docvsmdi example
+2. Bring up the file open dlg.
+3. Select Files of Type "Text"
+4. c:\autoexec.bat for file name
+5. Press okay and you should see
+ the crash.
+
+I understand that it is very
+hard to figure out the template
+when the user does not select
+one of the known extensions but
+this simple fix might atleast
+avoid the crash....
+
+I started playing with wxMSW
+just this morning and have not
+yet figured out exactly how to
+submit a fix. I atleast wanted
+to report it. Besides what I do
+for the MSW might not be correct
+for the other platforms :-)
+
+Note from JACS: fixed (I hope) by making m_filterIndex
+zero-based in MSW wxFileDialog implementation
+(it's zero-based in wxGTK/the generic dialog).

+DETAILS: wxGTK cannot seem to find the default font
+on (some?) Debian 2.x systems. This results
+in infinite recursion in wxLoadQueryNearestFont.
+
+It only happens on one of my two Debian machines,
+but I haven't investigated thoroughly enough to give
+any more detail.
+
+I have made a temporary workaround by trapping
+recursion in wxLoadQueryNearestFont with a static
+bool flag.
+
+I will investigate the problem further if this bug has
+not already been reported by someone else.
