[Bug 1016777] Re: dotty missing labels and context menu is broken

[Rick Poyner]

Font issue solved for me:

 * sudo apt-get install xfonts-100dpi
 * restart X session (log out and back in, for example)

Perhaps some xfonts package should be added as a dependency, or at least
to Recommends:? I did not investigate whether/why fonts-liberation could
suffice.

re: context menus in dotty: they are sensitive to the state of num-lock
for some reason. If they don't work, toggle num-lock and try again.
Dotty has had this problem for a long time.

Title:
  dotty missing labels and context menu is broken

Status in “graphviz” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Dotty on Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't really work.

  Load a dot graph in dotty (for example, "dotty example.dot" using the
  attached graph, taken from the Graphviz homepage).  There are two
  problems:

  1)  The text labels are not drawn, they just show up as dots.
  2)  The right-click menu doesn't work.  It shows up and entries are highlighted as you hover over them, but nothing happens when you select them.

  This is with graphviz 2.26.3-10ubuntu1 on Precise.
