GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 169212
Long scrollable drop-down menus position incorrectly
Last modified: 2005-03-04 19:32:42 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. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 129463 ***
