Description Sam K. Raju 2017-05-11 08:48:48 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a text file that has large number of lines (around 80-100).
2. Scroll to the bottom of the file using mouse or keyboard.
3. Last 3 lines are not visible and you cannot scroll further.
4. Click somewhere in the file and press CTRL + END. The cursor moves to the last line of the file but those last 3 lines are still not visible.
5. Press ENTER and now the last 3 lines of the file (and the new line) are visible. You can now easily scroll through the file.

I can't seem to reproduce the bug on 3.22.1. I can see the last three lines perfectly fine.
Comment 2 Sam K. Raju 2017-08-27 16:08:25 UTC
I noticed that issue happens if gedit window is not already open and then if you double click a file from Nautilus and the gedit window is opened in maximized mode. If the gedit window is opened in unmaximized mode then last 3 lines are visible.

If you first open gedit window in maximized mode and then open the file using open menu then last 3 lines are visible.

On opening the Gedit.py file the last 3 lines are now shown but once I switch to terminal and then switch back to gedit, the last 3 lines are visible. But the issue is not reproduced when Gtk.py file is opened. Opening Gedit.py file always reproduces the issue.
