Description Sureyya Sahin 2016-10-25 14:34:16 UTC

Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Emacs Version 25.1.1 and auctex version 11.89-3


How reproducible: I can produce this everytime. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load latex-mode in emacs
2. From Options menu, choose Show/Hide, then Tool-bar, and click On the left (or On the right)

Actual results: You will realize that the separator between the latex related buttons and the other emacs tool bar buttons remains vertical as it would when the tool bar is shown on top or bottom of the screen.


Expected results: I would expect the separator to be seen as a horizontal line instead of vertical line as the other separator items in the tool bar is showing when you choose the tool bar to left or right.


Additional info: Strangely, I also observe that the separator entries between undo operations, file operations and copy paste buttons disappear when I switch the tool bar to show vertically in emacs.

I have a feeling that this is just another symptom of Emacs+Gtk3 misbehavior.

Do you run Gnome? If yes, could you please also try to reproduce the bug with Openbox/i3?

Yes, I run Gnome. I have i3 and enlightenment window managers installed already, so I switched to i3 and tried to reproduce. Yes, the bug exists in i3 as well.

I also tried launching emacs in enlightenment window manager. It seems like emacs (or gtk3 applications) are not doing well with enlightenment window manager because emacs launched without window manager in enlightenment. Still, I tried activating latex mode while the tool bar is on the left vertical position, I can also confirm the bug exists under enlightenment.

I switched to Gnome on Wayland and I can confirm the bug persists.

I can install openbox and see if it makes any difference, but I doubt it would. 

Also, I will not file another bug report for the behaviour of emacs under enlightenment window manager. But I would appreciate if you could provide any workaround, if exists.

If you want me to do anything extra to test the bug, let me know.

Comment 3 Sureyya Sahin 2016-10-26 14:31:41 UTC

My impression is that this bug is more related to either auctex or emacs itself than gnome or gtk3 because when I switch the tool bar to left, all the separators on the tool bar correctly show horizontal. It is only after I launch latex mode I observe that the separator between latex buttons and the rest is vertical. As I informed you before, the rest of the separators do not show up after launching latex mode.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 23:37:05 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 19:00:24 UTC

Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
