Progress bar disappears on verbose long routes (this is a bad title read the blurb). #32

Closed Tromador closed 6 years ago

Tromador commented 6 years ago

If one is calculating a route such that one is using some kind of verbose output, including the progress bar.

Then if the output goes beyond the size of the output window element, such that a scroll bar appears.

Then every time it tries to put an '=' sign on the growing progress bar, it redraws the output window element such that the scrollbar is scrolled all the way to the top and one cannot observe the progress, because every time you try to scroll down, another = sign is regenerated and the whole thing is redrawn and resets back to the top of the window and shows the command line, rather than the growing progress bar.

God I hope that makes sense, I don't want to have to fraps it :)

It does make sense and I've been working on it. Hopefully I will solve it, but in the end it is a very annoying but trivial issue.

MarkAusten commented 6 years ago

This is now fixed (by ugly hacks) in v2.0.5.9-Beta

Tromador commented 6 years ago

I'd dispute that it was trivial, given the whole point of progress is to well, watch the progress but your ugly hack has done the job, so all good I guess :)

I suppose it depends with what it is compared. Issue #30 was a much greater problem. Still, it was bl00dy annoying.
