[GRASS-dev] [GRASS GIS] #3242: Gui does not disply correctly and locks up when scrolling down to make alternative mapsets visible in d.vect and d.rast.

#3242: Gui does not disply correctly and locks up when scrolling down to make
alternative mapsets visible in d.vect and d.rast.
----------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: ewcgrass | Owner: grass-dev@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: critical | Milestone: 7.0.6
Component: wxGUI | Version: 7.2.0
Keywords: | CPU: x86-64
Platform: Linux |
----------------------+-------------------------
When scrolling down map lists in the map selection drop-down window in the
first (Required) tab of d.vect and d.rast, the GUI locks up upon any of
the additional mapsets that are made accessible (shown in blue in the GUI)
being exposed in the GUI, except for the PERMANENT mapset, which appears
already expanded and does not cause the problem. While so far as I can
tell GUI lock-up may NOT occur about 5% to 10% of the time when only
exposing the unexpanded additional mapsets, it appears to occur 100% of
the time if the unexpanded mapsets are clicked upon. The additional
mapsets only appear as unexpanded. The GUI also displays oddly on
occasion, whereby when moved over GUI buttons the mouse pointer appears as
a box with two arrows at 45 degrees, and the scroll bar in the above noted
drop-down window fails to appear, such that scrolling can only be done
using the mouse wheel.

Once locked up, trying to shut down GRASS the normal way is impossible
because while the "Do you want to quit GRASS" window opens after clicking
on the GUI's x (top-right corner), that window is also non-responsive.

When the GRASS GUI is locked up, Xorg uses 100% of one CPU core, but
immediately drops to 0% after shutting GRASS down by typing Ctrl-D in the
console.

I am also experiencing the blacked-out check-boxes which were reported
elsewhere and are being dealt with upstream by M. Neteler re. the wxGTK3
repeated "Gtk-CRITICAL" warning bug. This leads me to question whether
what I am describe in the first paragraph above may not also be related to
wxGTK3??

I experience the very same defects in GRASS 7.2.0svn (r70142), which I
have compiled myself, as well as with GRASS 7.0.4-2.fc25.x86_64, which I
am running as supplied directly from the GRASS Fedora repository.

This problem became apparent only after upgrading from Fedora 21 to Fedora
25. All other computer functions seem to work correctly since the upgrade.

I am running kernel 4.8.15-300.fc25.x86_64, AMD Phenom II X4 processor, 16
GiB memory, Gnome 3.22 on X server, Nvidia GeForce GT 740 GPU with nvidia
driver from rpmfusion.

Sorry, in the heading "disply" should read "display".

I also failed to note that accessing mapsets via the "data" tab in the Map
Layer window appears to function 100% correctly.

Fedora pushed wxGTK3 to 3.0.2-31 and Xorg-Xserver to 1.19.0-13 today,
which appear to fix the blacked-out check-box issue. However, the problems
with mouse pointer drawing and GUI lock up by the d.rast and d.vect map
selection drop-down windows remain.

Comment (by neteler):

This is a bug in wxGTK3, not in GRASS GIS. Please report it here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=wxGTK3&list_id=6923830&product=Fedora

The maintainer is very fast, so it is worthwhile to report it there.

Unfortunately there is still several bugs in wxGTK3, but reporting them
will help.

Have you specifically tested TreeCtrl Popup widet in ComboCtrl.py? I just
want to make sure, because there is multiple widgets in this demo. The
errors in your output are unrelated to this widget. Markus, if you have
similar configuration, can you confirm this? I still think it's something
in wxwidgets.

The errors in your output are unrelated to this widget. Markus, if you

I have now tried myself (wxGTK3-3.0.2-31.fc24.x86_64):

{{{

So:

{{{
d.rast --ui
}}}

works fine, but

{{{
d.vect --ui
}}}

is killing the CPU, flooding the terminal with

{{{

Comment (by ewcgrass):

FYI, Scott Talbert has started to look at issue on Red Hat Bugzilla.

In additional trials, errors flooding terminal appears to be more related
to d.vect than to d.rast.

However, problem continues when creating new map displays in both d.vect
and d.rast. Also, the problem is intermittent when double-clicking on an
already displayed map layer in the layer manager, which opens say, d.vect,
for a displayed vector map. Then often (but not always) the scroll bar
does not display in the map selection drop-down window (must scroll using
mouse wheel). When scrolled all the way to the bottom of the drop-down
window to expose the additional mapsets (in blue, not expanded), all
usually appears fine. However, sometimes little arrow (triangle) to the
left of the mapset name appears and the mapset can be expanded, while
other times the triangle does not appear and clicking on the additional
mapset name locks up the GUI, accompanied as usual by 100% usage of one
CPU core by Xorg until stopping GRASS with Ctrl-D in the terminal.

Being a Fedora 25 user, I believe that the high CPU load issues result
from wxGTK3, see

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=wxGTK3&product=Fedora&list_id=7055558

I'll keep an eye on this and file future reports there.

Anything left open here from the GRASS GIS side?

Comment (by ewcgrass):

This problem still exists and can be a real game stopper when it occurs
during a long working session.

Scott Talbert on Redhat Bugzilla (Bug # 1411165) suggests (comment 3) that
message flooding may be a widget sizing issue that needs to be fixed in
GRASS. Nothing more appears to have been done upstream since Markus last
commented on 10 January 2017. Your thoughts Markus?
