[comp.windows.x] Stipple patterns under X11 with Xqdss server

harris@mit-caf.MIT.EDU (Robert M. Harris) (02/23/89)

I'm having trouble getting stipple patterns to work
with the Xqdss (color) server.  They work fine with
the monochrome server (Xqvss).  I presume this is a server
bug.  Does any one have a fix for this (or even an explanation
of what's wrong)?

Please respond to the address below.
Thanks.

This is a (well known) qdss server bug.  Here are some observations,
I will let you form you own work arounds if you feel that they are necessary.

1) XCopyPlane does not work from pixmap to window, but works fine from 
   pixmap to pixmap.  Also XCopyArea seems to be fine.

2) Stippling does not seem to work at all, but tiling works fine.
