22348 - Scrollbar does not display as window is resized in Editor

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P3)

Description

[Christine Hoffman]

Using the following builds:

Windows: 1999-12-21-00-m12
Linux: 1999-12-21-08-m13
Mac: 1999-12-17-10-m12

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the Editor
2. Type some text far enough down the page to create a scrollbar at the right
3. Resize the window, making it smaller

Expected result: Scrollbar should display as window is resized.
Actual result: At some point, scrollbar does not display as you resize the page.

Behavior is across platform. This does not happen in the browser

Accepting bug.

This problem also happens in the browser so it's not specific to the editor. I
just verified this in my 01/04/2000 Debug WinNt and Linux build.

The problem happens with both Native and Gfx scrollbars. Just playing around
with resizing the window, it looks like the scrollbars stop moving when the
content area (canvas) reaches a minimum size.

This is a CSS problem. I spent some time getting rid of and overriding some of
the large min-width properties in the editor.css file and it seemed to help
quite a bit. I need to spend more time on this, but unfortunately this is at the
bottom of the M13 priority list. Moving to M14 for now.

I've found the CSS tricks to fix this and am experimenting with them now.
We need to use the "overflow: hidden" property on the sibling toolbar and
status windows associated with the content window.

Fix is ready.

Fixed by adjusting CSS in global.css, so fix will work for Navigator as well.
