Description Christian Persch (GNOME) 2006-12-04 04:44:04 UTC

Forwarded from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382207 :

Epiphany 2.16.1, Ubuntu 6.10

The throbber used on tabs while pages are loading is quite nice, but it blinks
as the dark segment reaches 12 o'clock. This suggests that there is an
accidental blank frame in the animation.

---

Indeed, the process-working animation contains a blank frame, see

The name specification defines process-working to include the 'still' frame.
Historically the GNOME side of things has been using a separate file for this
(unlike KDE for example). If applications aim to support the naming scheme, they
should follow the spec.

Comment 2 Christian Persch (GNOME) 2006-12-04 07:14:38 UTC

Well, Epiphany doesn't use "process-working", but "gnome-spinner". Since the
specifications of these are incompatible, gnome-spinner should not be a symlink
to process-working.

Comment 3 Jakub Steiner 2006-12-05 03:52:57 UTC

Changing the system to the gnome way of things doesn't solve anything, just
moves the problem to the KDE side. I don't see this as a problem with the
specification nor the tango icon theme.

Comment 4 Christian Persch (GNOME) 2006-12-05 04:29:31 UTC

I fixed epiphany to use the 0th frame as rest icon.

However I still don't get why the frame is blank; shouldn't it be the 'clock'
with all marks light-grey ?
