GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 642834
Bouncing workspace selector
Last modified: 2011-02-21 17:21:43 UTC
In overview mode, move the mouse pointer to the right edge of the screen. The workspace selector slides in. Now, continue to move the pointer to the right: the selector bounces back and forth, while it should just remain still.
This is with multiple monitors so a duplicate of 641877?
No it is on a laptop with single monitor.
Is there a gap to the right of the workspace selector?
No, as far as I can see. Using magnification, I can see only a single-pixel line with lighter color all along the right edge of the screen
Are you using a custom theme?

(Go into the Activities Overview and hit PrintScreen.) That might conceivably give us a clue what is going on. Also, what resolution is your screen? We might have a layout bug that occurs at only some screen sizes.
Created attachment 181459 [details] single-pixel line with lighter color I'm using the native screen resolution 1366x768. I confirm that the bug disappears with all the other resolutions I can use (1280x720, 1152x768, 1024x768).
Created attachment 181461 [details] [review] overview: avoid round-off errors when sizing and positioning view selector We need the view selector to extend all the way to the right edge of the monitor, so size and position the view selector in a way that the sum of its X position and its width add up to the primary monitor width.
Review of attachment 181461 [details] [review]: Looks right.
Thanks! with this patch the bug disappears
