Bug 133120 – [New Multicolumn] Contents in the columns following a spanner may bleed into the column preceding it

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: INVALID
• Component: Layout and Rendering

[Morten Stenshorne]

This was introduced by the fix for bug 132298 . The code removal in RenderMultiColumnSet::endFlow(). So the code there was necessary after all (it's just that we didn't have any tests for it), but it's messy, so better find a cleaner way of doing this.

How about inserting a column break at the placeholder and have a strut do the job for us?

@hyatt - can you review, please?

This will require some test rebaselining, because the flow thread will become taller than before in some cases (without affecting the set heights).

I'm not exactly sure why code had to be removed from endFlow() as part of fixing bug 132298, but it was admittedly kind of ugly. I hope this new attempt won't mess up anything for compositing.

So, yeah, that were the "failures" I kind of expected. Need to rebaseline this. I don't know about the image failures, and how I could have caused them, though. Looks like everything is off by ~half a pixel, horizontally. Compositing issue? I only expected render tree dump differences.

Hi,

Apologies that your patch was not reviewed in a timely manner. Since it's now quite old, I am removing it from the review request queue. Please consider rebasing it on trunk and resubmitting.

To increase the chances of getting a review, consider using 'Tools/Scripts/webkit-patch upload --suggest-reviewers' to CC reviewers who might be interested in this bug.

[Sam Sneddon [:gsnedders]]

This is no longer applicable given Regions (which the new multicol was based on) was removed in bug 174978.
