Tk Source Code

Revised [text]: assertion failed in tkTextDisp.c:7191

Happens in TkTextUpdateLineMetrics(): 
<verbatim>
    assert(lineNum <= endLine);
</verbatim>
 
Breakpointing at this place just before the assertion, one gets the following call stack:

</verbatim>

This shows that the command currently executed was ".text count -ypixels", with the "indexFrom" and "indexTo" being identical, which triggers the assertion.

The call to:
<verbatim>
    UpdateLineMetrics(textPtr, from, to);
</verbatim>
in tkText.c:1873 surely does not need to be done  if (indexFrom == indexTo)

Perhaps adding this test would be enough to fix the issue.

This is fully repeatable in my application. I can try to produce a short demo script if needed.
