Bug Description

Three buttons on ERC dialog box are invisible, dialog has place for it but does not render it. Resizing window or moving around does not help. Sometimes when quickly moved some drawing garbage is frozen on buttons canvas. Other dialogs in eeschema/pcbnew render dialogs with buttons without any issues.

My platform is Windows 7 64-bit. When eeschema runs in compatibility mode with "disable visual themes" turned on, then buttons' blanks are visible on gray canvas (see screenshots attached). On vmware with Windows Server 2008 (OSX as host) it works fine so my best guess is its wxWidgets issue on 64-bit platform.

Can you test a rev >= BZR 6177 and see if still happens ?
