Urxvt: resizing terminal cuts off lines

I report a bug of urxvt found in the web and that i cannot resolve, i hope that here there is someone who can help me:
I'm using rxvt-unicode's "urxvtc" as X11 terminal.
If I resize the terminal window before text output has already filled a screenful and the terminal has scrolled down a few lines, the text lines already in the window are cut to fit the resized window.
When there has been enough output (so that the scrollbar is not 100% full), then the terminal does the right thing: lines longer than the new terminal width are wrapped around, and no screen content is lost.
I'm using a tiling window manager, so terminal resize happens automatically all the time, and it gets annoying to lose part of the text.
Do you have any solutions? Thanks

  • Cfreport cutting off lines on multiple pages created with report builder

    I have a report built with report builder and it appears that if you set the body to "stretch with overflow" that cfreport will "cut off" a line or two every time it paginates see attached for a simplified version of the report, I have removed all but the body on this (actual report has a watermark, report header, page header and page footer ...the problem is pretty apparnt with this scaled down version as you can see it's missing text from one page to the next ..any ideas/suggestions/known bug?? You can see a sample of the issue here: http://www.arroyoc.com/onlybody.pdf

    Hi Helen,
    As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by width size is not appropriate in the report. To narrow down this issue, please make sure that Body Width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
    If the tablix is a matrix, because of the column group can expand to multiple columns, we should according to the following rule:
    Body Width + Extra expanded column width + Left margin + Right margin <= (Page width).
    Besides, please make sure there are no extra page breaks before each “R”. To check whether the issue is caused by the letter “R”, we can try to use another field to replace the Company Name field.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • How to make pdf of IE page without cutting off right edge or getting illegible font?

    If I create a PDF from the Acrobat Pro X toolbar, it cuts off lines, instead of wrapping them as they are displayed and printed. Actually, it looks like they are folded back upon themsleves at the right side, as if there is no "new line" along with the "C/R".  If I print to PDF, I get illegible weird characters, almost as if it were a windings font.  I already did a repair reinstall, which is when the weird font started.  The cutting off started before then.
    All PDFs I make from Office documents are still normal.  A PDF made either way from FireFox is still normal.  If I print from I.E. to paper it looks normal. Must be some weird interaction with I.E. 8.0.60001.18702.  Using XP.
    Cannot find a similar topic that discusses this.  Using Acrobat Pro X; no updates are available so I must be current at 10.1.4  This is on a corporate PC, so I am limited as to what system changes I can make by policy. It's also a major deal to reinstall from disk, as the techs have the CDs and keys and must do it.  On the other hand, they are clueless about the problem.  Have not heard complaints about this from anyone else.
    Can anyone help?

    Still have not heard from anyone.  I think there is something wrong with the forum pages at Adobe; this is the site where I have the problem.  If I use the PRINT ICON on the site or use F8 and print to Adobe printer, I get garbage.  If I use PRINT PREVIEW at the right, on the site, it is OK and it prints to Adobe OK.  If I use VIEW AS PDF on the site at the right, it is OK. If I use the CONVERT ICON in I.E. 8, it cuts off everything on the right, from the REPLIES SECTION on down.
    So the work-around is to either use the VIEW AS PDF command at the right or the PRINT PREVIEW command at the right.  It still worries me that the CONVERT icon in I.E. 8 and any PRINT to Adobe printer command will mess it up.
    There are some places at adobe.com where things still work correctly.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • Icon Text Cutting Off

    I have just reinstalled tiger on my laptop and the icons sometimes act strangely in that the icons with a single line of text beneath, usually appear normal, though sometimes the bottom of the text is cut off. When I select the icons, and the coloured background that indicates that it is selected appears behind the text, the bottom of the coloured background/shape is also cut off. On the icons (folders,files) that have two lines of text, I can sometimes see the tops of some of the bottom line letters poking up through the cut off line, again when selected the background is also cut off. Any help would be much appreciated,
    Thanks.

    I had a file appear in my root directory as a result of using quake 3 arena 1.32 (or according to various posts in google groups in any case), which I then made invisible again so as to avoid accidentally damaging or deleting it. The file was "botlib.log" which I was informed of as an "empty log file" by the mac os x console utility. Perhaps this is connected to the cutting off problem?

  • Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?

    Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?
    I use the Tools > Annotate > Add Text feature, and when I click away after adding text, it automatically changes the text box size such that the last letter -- or last word -- gets bumped off into an invisible line below it, forcing me to manually adjust every single text box. It is highly annoying when trying to complete PDF forms (e.g. job applications).
    It appears to be a glitch, quite honestly, an error resulting from Apple's product design. Has it been fixed in the new operating system (for which they want $30)?
    I would very much appreciate any help you can provide! Thank you for your time.

    Better yet... as there's a lot of "wasted" space w/ too large Month title and empty space surrounding the Month title above and too much space surrounding the month/year slider bar below, how can I minimize these to allow me more usable / valuable calendar "contents" so I don't need to waste so much time clicking "more" just to see the bottom of the truncated third event and find out there are no 4+ events posted that date?  i.e. more "user-friendly" presentation?

  • How to cut off data use on a line in a family share plan?

    Is there a way to cut off data useage on one line in a family share plan? I have one person that is going over and want to simply cut off the data use after she reaches say 110% of her use in the billing cycle.

    I agree get Family Base and charge then the extra $5 it will cost since that person doesn't seem to understand the concept of SHARING. Or up the data plan and charge the extra to them and tell them since you had to increase the data plan because them they can pay the extra mount.

  • IBooks Author in-line tables are being cut off

    iBooks Author in-line tables are being cut off at the bottom of a column, instead of flowing to the next column, or moving the entire table. 
    The entire point of marking a table as in-line, is to get it to move as text is inteserted before it.  But when that happens, nothing makes sure the table remains visible.  When the top of the table gets pushed to a new column, it reappears intact, but when half the table won't fit, it just disappears below the bottom margin.
    How can I prevent that?

    Actually I just did.  I gave up on this long ago, but with your reply I found a way to make it work.  It seems strange, but it works half way.
    First draw a text box, then inside of the text box, put your table.  Make the text box In-line.  If you add rows to your table, you need to make the text box bigger yourself, as it won't grow automatically.  When you type in front of the text box, when it won't fit on the column or page, the entire box is moved to the next column or page.  That is the half that works.
    The half that doesn't work, is that when part of the table won't fit, it would have been nice if the non-fitting portion was moved to the next column or page, with a new header row.  Maybe with time, Apple will fix that. 
    But at least it won't cut off half the table this way.

  • IPhone calendar events are cut off at 57 lines of content

    Hi,
    My iPhone(iOS 4.1) syncs with my corporate Exchange server. I use the calendaring feature religiously. Sometimes an event(for example, a WebEx invitation) will be forwarded to me that's quite lengthy. The event shows up fine in Outlook, but on my iPhone it cuts off after 57 lines of content. This causes me grief when theres a URL I need to get to thats, say, on line 58.
    I took a screenshot of a test event I created: http://1strule.org/53/iphone-cal-issue.jpg
    Is there anyway to increase the size of these events?

    I'm having the same issue but with 5.1.1 and exchange but the Notes section of the calendar event on my phone gets cut off around 8 lines. Shows up fine in Outlook but is content of the meeting request or calendar event is cut off.

  • Every other line of print is cut off on my Photosmart C4750

    I have recently replaced and aligned new cartridges on my Photosmart C4750. I am printing directly from computer to printer via USB. The last two items I have printed are being cutt off every other line of print, on either the top or bottom of the printed pages. Any ideas?

    Hello there, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
    I noticed your post about the printing problems you are having and would like to offer you my suggestion. First of all, print using a different program to see if the issue is only within one program. If you see the issue happening no matter where you print from, run the HP Print and Scan Doctor if you're running a Windows OS.
    Also, try a copy to see if there are cut offs with them as well!
    Please let me know what happened and include your OS and programs you have tried printing from.
    Help to find which Operating System you are running:
    Which Windows Operating System am I running?

  • Resizing cut-off video

    In a recent dvd i created in dvd studio 3, an unacceptable amount of the video gets cut off on most TV's. i know you can view the "action safe" area when creating a menu, but is there an easy way to resize video to fit within this area? is this possible in dvd studio, or is video editing software required?

    Hi David
    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately it can't be done in DVDSP, you'll have to adjust your original footage in FCP then re-encode and re-import. Action & Title safe areas are pretty standard between most applications. If you're using FCP select the viewer to show Action and Title safe - this will give you a better idea of what's on screen before you get to your final DVD.
    Cheers
