Description

[Karl Dubost💡 :karlcow]

This is a bug report in the context of testing Google Image Search
with Firefox Android
with a Chrome UA string.
to study what are the gaps we may need to solve.

See https://webcompat.com/issues/29647 for details

To reproduce:

Settings:

1. Open Firefox Desktop
2. Set the browser in RDM (Responsive Design Mode)
3. Screen size 411x731
4. DPR: 2.6
5. User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 8.0; Pixel 2 Build/OPD3.170816.012) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/75.0.3769.0 Mobile Safari/537.36
6. Touch activated.

Then:

1. Navigate to: https://www.google.com/search?q=lacoste&tbm=isch&hl=en&chips=q:lacoste,g_1:crocodile:RPvlGo1CL9I%3D,g_1:logo:GF43clVn1iQ%3D&hl=en&ved=2ahUKEwjr-4DlztnhAhWKOuwKHYrNDyUQ4lZ6BAgBEBg&biw=360&bih=560
2. Tap on any filter (such as HD, Product, etc.)
3. Observe the Categories section and all scrollable sections.

Expected Behavior:
The Categories section is displayed without the scrollbar

Actual Behavior:
A horizontal scroll bar is displayed under the categories section, for a split second.

This is not happening in Chrome.

It's a webkit-scrollbar bug, but very minor, so let's set it as P3.

Comment 4

[Thomas Wisniewski [:twisniewski]]

I can't seem to reproduce this (perhaps it's because I can only use an integer DPI?) but I do see styles like this in their CSS, so I presume the scrollbar may still be triggerable in some circumstances:

.scqVmb {
  overflow-x:scroll;
  padding-bottom:16px;
  -webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch
}
.scqVmb::-webkit-scrollbar {
  display:none
}

Closing as worksforme for now based on comment 4, we can reopen if we still see this again.
