           Summary: Picasa sometimes slow and jerky while moving through
                    images in edit window
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20050830
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


I'm running 20050830 compiled from the tarball, with a couple
patches from Mike M.
(http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2005-September/020605.html,

This is an intermittant interactivity problem.

If you run Picasa, and doubleclick on an image, you should be
able to quickly move back and forth through the list of images
in the same directory, and usually, you can.  However, sometimes
it is very slow and jerky.  For several seconds at a time, while
you're trying to move, you'll be stuck on one image while
the little message "Refining..." is diplayed in the center of the screen.
Scroll events stack up during this time, and it can take five or
ten seconds for picasa to finish handling them once it unblocks.

Maybe this is more likely while Picasa is scanning the hard drive
for images.  It seems to improve with time.  Removing the wine
directory and reinstalling picasa (to force the scan again) might
help reproduce if you've had picasa installed for a long time and
can't see this problem.


(A little background:
When you start Picasa, it displays "the Library", which has two 
panes: on the left, a list of directories;
on the right, a list of images in the selected directory.
When you doubleclick on one of the images in the right hand pane,
it takes you to an edit screen, again with two panes:
on the left, a list of actions you could take, and on the right,
a large view of the single image.  At the top of the edit screen
is a navigation widget that shows your position in the list of images in
this directory.  This is the screen that showed the jerkiness.)
