Description Noel Grandin CLA 2003-07-24 05:05:15 EDT
Use case: I'm in the java editing window, and I've got some little red marks on 
the right hand bar to indicate compile errors. I use my mouse to position the 
arrow cursor over the little red mark such that the point of the arrow cursor 
is over the red mark. But it won't "register" and change to a hand icon until I 
move the cursor up by a couple of pixels. 
I.e. the hotspot appears to be in the middle of the finger instead of at the 
tip of the finger.

Notes:

- As of 3.0M9, this is improved but the bug is still there.

- Note that there are 3 UI elements involved here. The first element is the
normal cursor and it's hotspot, the second element is the area of the marks 
that is considered "hitable" and the third element is the hand cursor.
Either the "hitable" area or the normal cursor are slightly out, because I have 
2 move the cursor to about the top half of the "marker" before it changes to a 
hand cursor.

This is primarily a problem with large java files (1000-5000 lines) where the 
marks become quite small, and I'm trying to navigate by using the various 
markers (bug, search, etc.).
