1368706 - Horizontal scrollbar prevents accessing the last message

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools :: Console, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

Attachment: console_scrollbar_selection.png

STRs:
- log long messages that trigger a horizontal scrollbar 
  (eg `console.log((new Array(500)).join("a"))`)
- the floating scrollbar can prevent you from selecting the last line (see screenshot)

The issue exists both with the old and the new frontend.

FWIW, the console on Chrome is wrapping long lines.

I was going to open up a bug for this, but it seems that somebody else has beaten me to it.

If you wait, the scrollbar will eventually disappear, allowing you to access the last message. Still, even when you expand an object or something this way, it will continue to block the last line of text.

We do wrap everything now and don't have any horizontal scrollbar in the console, so I think we can close this.
Feel free to re-open it if the issue persist.
