Text widget scrollbars problem - Firefox [message #692351] Mon, 04 July 2011 09:32 Go to next message

Hello,

I have a problem with the Text widget:

- if the height of the widget is smaller than 36 px (we use fixed bounds, no layouts), the vertical scrollbar does not appear at all (even if needed). This happens in Firefox only (IE, Safari, Chrome and Opera behave ok).

I would be happy if someone can tell me if this is a known browser/RAP bug, or if I should report it as a bug.

I use the latest RAP stable build 1.4 (22.06.2011) and it happens with Firefox 3.6, 4.0, 5.0, as far as I could test.

Thank you in advance,
Cristina

As far as i can tell the browser does this because there is not enough
space to draw a useable scrollbar. I think i would not consider it a
bug, and we probably can't do anything about it. It this a blocker for you?


Greetings,
Tim

Hi Tim,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I think I didn't explain good enough my problem. I attach you a visual representation of my problem better. I made a screenshot of how it behaves for Firefox/Opera. The one circled in red is wrong and it behaves like this only in Firefox.

Can you take a look at it please?

Thank you in advance,
Cristina

Hm, no, this is pretty much what i thought it would be. As i said, its
the browsers decision to draw it like that. You can scroll with keyboard
and programatically, so its still somewhat useable. However, if you have
such a small multiline-text i would suggest to rethink your layout
instad of trying to get the scrollbars to show.

Greetings,
Tim

Tim,

Thank you for your time and explanations, I understand now.
I first thought we talk about different things, sorry for the trouble.

Good progress,
Cristina
