Hello all,
I have a work-around, so this isn't urgent. In view of recent events,
keep caring for yourselves.
Gmail sizes some text areas weirdly, as (CSS) width:80ex, and they
disappear from view. I've tried two fonts, and the disappearance is
complete in both cases. A cut down example is attached. The diff to
suppress the disappearance is:
--- gmail-compose-14.html 2016-10-21 21:06:01.000000000 +1300
+++ gmail-compose-15.html 2016-10-21 21:10:41.000000000 +1300

.qr input{font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:100%}
The immensely crude work-around is the following, as a .gdbinit:
----------------
break 'StyleEngine::setClass'
break main
commands 2
cond 1 (0 == (int)strcmp(klass, "mi"))
cont
end
commands 1
set klass = "i"
cont
end
run
----------------
I'm open to hints about where to look for the effect of width on
multiline text resources, but really I'm lost.
Regards,
James.
