prompt gets turncated in wimenu with Xft font #177

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. use a Xft font in wmii 
     echo font xft:Monospace:pixelsize=10 | wmiir write /ctl
2. run wimenu with the prompt "||||||"
     echo test | wimenu -p "||||||"

What is the expected result? What do you see instead?
the prompt should show "||||||", but instead it shows "||..."

What version of the product are you using (wmii -v)? On what operating
system?
wmii-hg2600, linux with libXft-2.1.14

looks like there is an inconsistency between the textwidth and the
drawstring method. A simple workaround would be to add a little bit to
promptw in menu.c.
I did not find any other location in wmii where a text gets turncated.

here's the workaround, dunno if 2 pixel are enough for all fonts :/

Hi Kris,

The changeset which fixed this bug has introduced another one:

cc: error.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [wmii.out] Error 1
make[1]: *** [dall] Error 2
make: *** [dall] Error 2

This was caused by the following hunk:

Please push another changeset that reverts the above hunk.  Thanks.
