GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 160578
Vertical scrollbar disappears when resizing Nautilus' window
Last modified: 2005-07-13 10:39:49 UTC
I've taken some screenshots to illustrate this bug: http://toufle.net/julien/nautilus/ As you can see on the shots, when you reduce the width of a Nautilus window, if the size of the window gets smaller than the size of the menu, the vertical scrollbar disappears and some of the folders then get unreachable.
Weird but true. Confirming.
This looks like a widget packing bug. to me The window is becoming smaller than the menu is requesting, but there's a container widget somewhere in the hierarchy that is giving its children less than they request. I would examine the widget hierarchy here and looks at settings like expand and shrink on table insertions, things like that.
This is a such bug, with a screenshot, here: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8019
The problem is that Nautilus passes the wrong arguments when packing widgets into the window's main table.
Created attachment 48976 [details] [review] Proposed patch against HEAD I've also submitted this patch to the nautilus mailing list [1] for review. [1] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2005-July/msg00120.html
