Description Clemens Eisserer 2013-03-21 23:47:45 UTC 
There seems to be a long standing bug in SNA which causes text rendering in java/awt applications to be unreliable.

Steps to reproduce:
- Make sure you have java installed
- Start the "policytool" program
- Play with the menu-bar

I've created a screencast to illustrate the issue: http://youtu.be/1oWPHiT7cYU

Intel 2.21.5 release, Sandy Bridge notebook
This bug only seems to happen when no composition manager is used.

    sna: Fix computation of clip extents for stippling
    
    The clip extents for the stippled BLT missed applying the drawable
    offset to the lower-right corner, so inevitably every operation ended up
    being clipped.
