can't scroll to last 3-4 lines of text

Gedit can't display last few lines of file although scroll bar is at the bottom when started maximized. Look at a bottom of attached screenshot. 

Reproducible: Yes
How to reproduce:
1. Open Gedit
2. Maximize Gedit window
3. Close Gedit
4. Open file that contains more lines than would fit into maximized window
5. Scroll to the bottom

Last 3-4 lines of text at the end can't be seen.

Workaround: resize (unmaximize) window

I confirm, I've had this bug recently with a more recent gedit version. But it's more likely a bug in GtkTextView.
Comment 2 Sébastien Wilmet 2017-09-10 15:44:33 UTC 
Moving the bug back to gedit, because I think I've never had this bug with another application that uses GtkTextView/GtkSourceView.

It's maybe because of GeditViewCentering.

I can confirm I experience this bug. I remember it starting after some changes that were implemented for GNOME builder. (Not sure it's related, but gedit has been pretty stable until recently.) Is it possible it's related to some "overscroll" changes? In any case, thanks for all the great work!
