I however don't know how to reproduce the issue you are encountering).
I'm using libatspi, versions from jessie to sid, and I tried upgrading libpango to sid too. I'm using the "atspi_text_get_character_extents" function from libatspi: AtspiRect *size = atspi_text_get_character_extents(text, event->detail1, ATSPI_COORD_TYPE_SCREEN, NULL); I'm using it with a listener like so: atspi_event_listener_register (listener, "object:text-caret-moved", NULL) Problem occurs when (any) text entry is empty, or when the line or paragraph is empty. When clicking on a text entry (firefox), atspi emits two events: - one event that focuses the paragraph - one event for the caret, for which the extent is that of the full paragraph width/height. hope that helps -- Ksamak Free software hacktivist
