I20071030-0010, used to be better in I20070918-0010

Squiggles look like a bead chain on the Mac, see screenshots.

How bad? Can we ship M3 with it?

Sorry, looks like bugzilla didn't take the screenshots in the first try.

If it's too hard to fix, I could live with it for 3.4 M3, but this need to be improved for 3.4.

Markus, how do you like the error line in TextEdit ?

What are you asking is for us to improve our error line to look exactly the same as the one drawn by TextEdit ? Or what do you want is the squiggle back ?

Comment 5 Steve Northover

We should fix our native drawing and (possibly) offer squiggles for those that don't want to draw natively.

Exactly. See also bug 205794. Platform Text would surface both, so that people can choose.

Note: Bug 205794 is fixed.

This bug for me now means: get our error underline to look exactly the same as TextEdit. Low priority.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
