Double bottom menu on Nokia handsets

3 messages - 1365 views

I'm seeing some odd behavior on Nokia handsets.  I have verified this on the Nokia N95, N82, N81, E71.  I have not see this on any other non-Nokia handset that I have tested including the Blackberry Bold, Sony Ericsson W910, and more.

 

For some reason I occasionally get a double menu bar posting on the bottom half of the phone.  I think it has to do with something in the kuix library that is causing this but I have no idea what it could be.  Can anyone point me into the right direction of where I should look to troubleshoot? 

 

For a screenshot of what this looks like, please see this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rvd90277/3442923568/ - it's not a good photo because it was taken with my Blackberry but hopefully you can see the double bottom menu posting.

I've seen this behaviour too. Most of the time this occured after entering text into a TextField Widget. Kuix uses the LCDUI TextBox element for entering text. Nokia devices disable full screen mode to display the TextBox. After pressing Validate it changes back to full screen mode.

Nokia apparently sends an onSizeChanged event to the midlet when fullscreen mode is disabled. Afterwards it sends the event again when fullscreen is enabled.

I think the reason for this is the clipping mechanism in the paint methods. It fully repaints the current screen in the non-fullscreen size. And after the next onSizeChanged event it just repaints the bottombar and doesn't touch the rest of the screen.

I faced this problem as well.. i guess we should get a response from Kuix authors.. possiblt Tofu would be the best person to reply..
