#1646 SnapShot Restore-- Restored Screen Abbreviated Cut-off

[Shannon Brown]

OS = Linux 21.10

VICE Vic-20 xvic 3.5 (GTK3 3.24.30, GLib 2.68.4)

What Happens
See attached images.
1. Start Vic-20
2. Type a simple line such as 10 REM A NOTE
3. Snapshot...Save Snapshot Image
4. Close Vic-20
5. Open Vic-20
6. Snapshot...Load Snapshot Image
7. Select snapshot created in Step 2.
8. See attached image. The snapshot loads but the Vic-20 screen appears cut-off. The number of lines displayed seems about half the normal number of lines. LIST lists the program but seems cut-off/too few display lines.
9. A File...Reset...Soft Reset restores to the proper number of lines but all work is lost. (Obviously).

I tried another example.
Adding to the above.

1. Start a new Vic-20 instance.
2. Type nothing. Immediately select Snapshots...Save Snapshot
3. Save snapshot.
4. Close Vic-20.
5. Open Vic-20.
6. Load the snapshot in Step 3.
7. Now no white display lines appear at all. No input seems possible from the restored snapshot. (See attached image. All aqua with no input lines.)

doesn't happen here (win7 though)... maybe try with

xvic -default

I am still seeing this. VICE is being run from Flatpak (the package method for my Linux distro). I am trying to figure out how to run the emulator from the command line so I can add switches as you suggest. The issue is still there even after a reinstall of VICE.

VICE (Linux POP OS 21.10)
Flatpak packaged
