Eclipse 3.6.2
Build id: M20110210-1200

When pressing F1 to open the dynamic help tray sometimes lines of text overlap.

This sounds similar to bugs 218319 and 221608 but that was fixed in 3.4. Also this new issue affects the main body of the text.

Resizing the view often causes the problem to go away. Many width settings are fine, but certain widths show screen corruption in slightly different ways.

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.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. 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.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
