The Tcl/Tk core developers acknowledged that there might be a bug in the code that translates canvas coordinates to X coordinates (which are 16 bit), and asked me for a screenshot or repro-case to illustrate the problem. However, I was unable to get current gitk to exhibit the problem, even with Thomas Gleixner's enormous history.git repository. Do you have a specific example (repository and commit ID) where you see the problem occur? Paul.
