Summary0000516: OS X wxWindows GUI problems
DescriptionUsing the CMake 1.8.3 wxWindows GUI
frontend on OS X and I'm experiencing problems with its rendering and interface.

When I first bring it up, the window fails to display the scrollbar and the buttons to change a field entry are not visible. The field in the Cache Values seems rather small (wide enough for about 8 characters) and is much smaller than the picture in the Mastering CMake book, while the white data entry fields are really long.

If I resize the window larger, I can get the scrollbar and see part of the change field entry buttons. But no matter what size I pick, the field entry buttons are cut off on the right (by the scrollbar?). The buttons are also too tall for the field so they are cut off on the bottom too.

If I try changing a field where I am required to type, I cannot see the changes as I type it. Usually, my cursor remains blinking at where I first started my change, but the field doesn't get usually updated until after I hit enter. Sometimes I get funny vertical lines in the general area of where I am typing. It might be the cursor being draw/redrawn over stuff.

The scrolling doesn't work quite right either. If I try to scroll (by using the mouse to drag the bar and also clicking in the blank areas above/below the bar), the slide bar doesn't visually move (though the field does at least scroll). If I click on the arrows on the
slide bar, it scrolls in extremely small increments, about 1 pixel per click. The PageUp/PageDown keys have no effect. And the mouse wheel doesn't work at all. The failure in the ability to scroll makes filling out a project with a lot fields extrenely difficult.

I'm running Panther on a G4 Cube with 640M RAM and a Nvidia Geforce2MX. I'm running at 1024x768 resolution.

This should either be fixed, or the gui should be removed by 2.0 cmake.

Do not include in next distribution as it is now.
Fix problems at some point in the future.

The old wxwindows gui is dead, there is a new one coming...
