Thanks for finding this. Attached patch fixes the XOR problem (applies to
current CVS - not incremental). One thing that I have noticed is that
sometimes the lower and upper triangles of the left indent item can get
out of sync, but I don't see why my patch would have anything to do with
this. Is this a known bug? To reproduce:
* Create a new doc
* Drag the upper arrow to a new position
* Drag it back to where it was before
* Drag the lower rectangle to move both triangles.
For me (with my patch applied, don't know about clean CVS) this results in
the top arrow being ghosted at its original position and that one being
moved whenever the rectangle is moved.
I'm sorry if it was hard to understand my usage of "triangle" and
"rectangle". I have not used a WP with a ruler of this type so I don't
know what their real names are. I hope you can figure it out from my
descriptions.
