[Bug] Wrong rendering in Simulator checking in menus #5850
Description
Summary
When the simulator is in landscape and Swing lightweight menus in windows overlap the skin area of the simulator they smear. This is probably due to the painting logic colliding with the pull down menu painting.

Just run the simulator

This was merged 3 days ago. We release on a Friday and today is a Wednesday. At the moment the latest release is
7.0.279which means that this fix will be in7.0.280. What we fixed is a simulator issue so it wasn't classified as a high priority bug. Actual apps shouldn't show that flashing since the problem relates to the Swing menus that won't be in the production scenario.DurankGts commentedon Oct 28, 2026
if you don't belive that this flashing is in your real app Saver. I recomended that you install and tested.

@DurankGts this looks like a completely different bug. The bug fixed here is related to menus in the simulator. It isn't a matter of belief its clarity in communication about the problem and separation of issues to distinct individual problems.
