Large document is not drawn correctly about zathura

[sebastinas]

Which PDF plugin are you using? The file gets rendered quite slowly on my end (with the poppler plugin), but the pages are displayed.

I have up-to-date Arch Linux with following zathura packages installed:

$ pacman -Qe | grep zathura
zathura 0.4.1-1
zathura-pdf-mupdf 0.3.4-1

I still the the issue with the document above. I can repro it by opening the document, make the window full-screen and then pressing 's'. I see a black screen no matter what page I go. I have a 1920*1080 monitor if it matters.

I installed poppler plugin and the issue still exists.

$ pacman -Qe | grep zathura
zathura 0.4.1-1
zathura-pdf-poppler 0.2.9-1

Having the same problem here as well. I found out that if I zoom out the page will render again. If I zoom enough in it will aslo render. Looks like render_job() hangs in some sizes.

Arch linux on kernel 4.20
Zathura 0.4.3-1 with zathura pdf-mupdf 0.3.4-1. Same error with poppler .
Only happening on large files with 1000++ pages

It stops like this in debug mode

I would like to investigate this. I have noticed that zathura_page_widget_draw doesn't get called for pages that don't get drawn, i.e. the described error behavior. If I understood the code correctly, this function is responsible for queuing the rendering job which never happens. The mentioned function seems to be the draw method of the GTK widget. However, since I'm not familiar with GTK, I was wondering what usually makes GTK call that method? If anybody more familiar with the framework could give me a few hints, I could track this down further.
