Description Scott Tringali 2005-03-04 17:33:11 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Whenever I drop down a long menu, the position is incorrect.  I get a few blank
entries on the top, and the bottom extends off the screen.

I don't run GNOME as a desktop; I'm running KDE, so maybe that has something to
do with it.  But I do use GNOME apps all the time inside KDE.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Start up DIA
2. On the "sheets and objects" page, click on the combobox on the top ("Assorted")



Actual results:
Top half of menu is blank, and the scroller is active.

Expected results:
No blank space in the menu, and no scroller because the menu fits on the screen.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
I'll attach a picture.

Also note that it only happens if the window is near the bottom of the screen.

I know, it's weird. But it works the way the gtk+ developer intended. 
See the rationale in bug #129463.
