Description satory 2013-09-27 12:25:26 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201309112301 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.7.0_25 ]

NOTE: This is probably in the listed under the wrong component, but I do not
see an appropriate one for the listed in the NetCat bug submission form.

When using linux(Mint14 and Ubuntu 12.04/10), there are menu items that often
show up and invisible, until the user hovers the mouse over them, and then
become invisible again when the user moves away again.  While this very may
well be a linux issue but, I haven't found any other program I use in linux
that displays this effect.

Ill attach a screenshot shortly showing this.

Humm, I seem unable to take a screenshot when the menu is open, but I have narrowed

Following on from Comment 1 - 

I have worked out that this is only happening on checked menu items.  If I uncheck the menu item it displays as expected.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
