When using fl_draw_pixmap, the image is not drawn correctly on the screen. Either nothing is drawn or only a square of the right size but filled with a solid color is shown. But the function spends long time to do this. This problem seems to be specific for MacOS X when fltk is compiled for Quartz, not for QD.

Note that drawing a pixmap image using Fl_Pixmap::draw works correctly and quickly. Declaring a Fl_Pixmap object and drawing it does NOT produce the problem mentioned above.

I observed this bug under MacOS X 10.5 and have no more chance to try earlier versions. In ealier versions, I used QD or changed the configure script to compile fltk for X11. (The latter makes no sense under 10.5.)
In these cases, this bug was not observed.

Could you please send some sample code. fl_draw_pixmap is used to draw Fl_Pixmaps which obviously works. Having sample source would make it a lot easier to find this bug. Thanks.

>>> Briefly: I have attached a simple tetris game, in which fl_draw_pixmap is used and does not work. Alternatively, one can use Fl_Pixmap, and it works.
>>> Software: fltk-1.1.x-r6020. You should configure it with --enable-quartz. If QuickDraw is used, everything fl_draw_pixmap works properly.
>>> OS: MacOS X 10.5.1.
>>> Why tetris: I have written a simple program that merely draws an xpm-image (taken from that tetris) in the main window. And it works fine even in Quartz! But I checked in the tetris whether fl_draw_pixmap gets the right xpm. It does. Furthermore, the tetris works properly if you compile fltk for Quickdraw.
>>> How to compile the tetris: I do not install fltk globally. Instead, I specify a local path in --prefix when configuring fltk. Then configure the tetris (using its 'configure') with the same path in --prefix. Then make it. Alternatively, you may use XCode. Then you need to change the paths of the fltk libraries: In the project window, go into "External Frameworks...", click every library with the right mouse button, choose "Get Info" and set your path. Both the methods (using configure+make and using XCode) should work and produce the same result. The only difference is that XCode creates a MacOSX-.app-Application whereas configure+make creates merely a Unix-executable (calles fltetris).
>>> How you switch between fl_draw_pixmap and Fl_Pixmap: Comment and uncomment lines 326-330 in fltetglass.cc. This is the only place in this version of the programm where fl_draw_pixmap is kept. But if you want, I can send you the previous version, where only fl_draw_pixmap is used.
>>> What you should look at: Start the program and launch the game by pressing the left button in the window. If you use Fl_Pixmap (not the current setting!), you will see a falling shape, and the glass will be filled with the squares. If you use fl_draw_pixmap, you see nothing except of the black background.
>>> fl_draw_pixmap vs. Fl_Pixmap: I looked through the fltk source code, Fl_Pixmap does not use fl_draw_pixmap. You are right, Fl_Pixmap uses fl_draw_pixmap (line 96 in Fl_Pixmap.cxx) but not directly for the screen. (Cf. line 149 in this file.) Can this be the matter? This tetris is an educational program, and use of fl_draw_pixmap for the direct screen output is a bit better for this purpose.

Excuse me: In the last paragraph of my previous text, one "not" should be deleted: Fl_Pixmap does use fl_draw_pixmap. (Or, better, the sentence should be removed.)

Confirmed on OSX 10.4.x.

The issue lies in fl_draw_pixmap's usage of q_begin_image, applying origin translation incorrectly. This works for Fl_Pixmap due to the current matrix, which allows the image to be placed at +0+0 (resulting in a no-op).

Attaching:

- fl_draw_pixmap_text.zip: reduced test case based on posted code
- fl_draw_pixmap.patch: fix against trunk

Fixed in Subversion repository.

Thanks to wavexx's patch. If this bug is fixed for good (and I am pretty sure it will be), we have the very first bounty winner ;-)

Thanks, wavexx.
