GtkComboBox popup window problems
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
If a GtkComboBox or GtkComboBoxEntry is near the bottom of the screen and you select it to show the popup window, the items in the popup are positioned incorrectly. You can see this in testcombo. The popup window looks like it might be positioned correctly, but the items inside it are too low, leaving an empty space at the top of the popup window, and the arrow for scrolling is displayed at the bottom.
I believe it behaves just like a regular scrolling menu, trying to keep the first item at the place where it would ordinarily be: below the entry.
Oh yes. The old GtkOptionMenu does it as well. It really looks like a bug though. But not a 2.4 issue.
