Bug Description
Dear all,
Using http://
I suppose it is Windows only or the developers would have noticed.
Not a crash bug here but still a very incovenient one.
First of all, some defs to be well understood:
1. I call spinbox an input box that has two arrows to increase/decrease the value it stores.
2. By autorepeat, I mean that a spinbox is expected to continuously increase the value in the input
box, providing visual feedback, if I do not release my mouse button after clicking on one of the
arrow and stay over it.
2 is indeed the behaviour nearly everywhere, like on the tools parameter spinbox or on the bitmap
vectorizer window, but not in a couple of places.
One is the document property, the other is the opacity spinbox at the bottom of the main window.
In those, the value seems to increase as expected in the background but the value displayed by
the input box is not updated until the mouse button is released (the opacity one sometimes
displays a few steps, the document windows never).
This is a real pain as you have to guesstimate the current value of the field.
Hope you can reproduce this,
Thanks for your time,
Kind regards,
Jerome

Confirmed on linux with current svn, at least with the opacity spinbox. What is the "document property"?
