Open a pidgin conversation and generate more than one screenful of text. 2. Review a line or two using flat review. 3. Scroll the window up such that more text is revealed. 4. Try to move to the new text. Actual results: Flat review ends where the original text stops and doesn't reveal the new text. Expected results: I'd expect to see the new text. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
I think this may be a duplicate of bug #436641. Note also that once Pidgin bug http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/7148 tracked by bug #552900 is fixed, you should be able to use Shift+F6 to go to the message area and review it using the built-in keyboard navigation techniques of GNOME. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 436641 ***
