combo box example that illustrates the issue

If the list is longer than the space of the screen the list in the combobox must be scroll able. When I click on the button the first time, the list does either not display (quickly vanishes directly) or it does display without the button for scrolling at the bottom.

When I click on the button the second time things work as expected.

Comment 3 Garrett Regier 2013-07-12 15:25:10 UTC 
I can't seem to reproduce this with the test case here or two given in the dup.

Can anyone reproduce this with gtk+ from git?
Comment 4 Adam Dingle 2013-07-12 15:47:15 UTC 
Hm - I can no longer reproduce this either with gtk+ from git master.  (I also tried the test case here and both test cases in the duplicate bug 697485.)  I bet this was fixed somehow in the last few months of updates to GTK.
Comment 5 Simon Feltman 2013-09-14 19:26:36 UTC 
The inverse of this problem (scrolls at first but not subsequently) is logged as bug #691974. This is still reproducible but it may only show up with certain theme engines as noted in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700161#c1
Comment 6 Daniel Boles 2017-08-15 15:55:47 UTC 
Yes, this appears to be fixed in current GTK+ 3. Also, it's fine in GTK+ 2, as well.
