#1094 new Defect

BOINC does not always launch a second graphics window when "Show graphics" is clicked on a project's second task (RNA World)

Reported by: JacobKlein Owned by: romw
Priority: Minor Milestone: Undetermined
Component: Manager Version: 6.10.60
Keywords: RNA World Graphics Flash Cc: Jacob_W_Klein@…

Description

I found this while testing graphics.

Scenario that works:
- Have 2 or more RNA World tasks running
- Select them
- Click "Show graphics"
- See the multiple Adobe Flash 9 windows properly open

Scenario that is broken:
- Have 2 or more RNA World tasks running
- Select only one of them
- Click "Show graphics"
- While those graphics are shown, select a different RNA World task
- Click "Show graphics" for the different task
- The second graphics window does not appear, even though it should.

I know there are many problems with the way BOINC handles graphics and screensavers for RNA World, and it's possible that they're all related... but I figured I should report this as its minor bug.

Feel free to email me with any questions.

Just to be clear, I think the expected operation for the broken scenario is to see 2 separate "Adobe Flash Player 9" windows.

Tickets #1080 and #1094 are probably related.
