333590 - Input fields don't display texts longer than the fields themselves

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Andreas Grillenberger]

Any input field that is not multilined, has problems displaying contents longer than the fields themselves since the 0411 trunk. In the 0410 trunk it was working. This is the same behaviour on webpage input boxes and on the adress or search box.

To reproduce enter some text longer than the search box in it. The Text will be displayed, but as it becomes longer you don't see what you are typing anymore, but the text is being written.

I can reproduce this behavior on the latest trunk.

1. Focus search bar
2. Enter lots of text
3. Observe that when you reach the edge of the search bar, it is not scrolled, so you can't see what you're typing in anymore.

I happen to have a 2006041012 build where this still works. Reduced regression range:

[Eli Friedman]

My fault; the change to GetScrollbarStylesFromFrame is causing problems.  The issue is that textboxes want to be scrollable, just without scrollbars.  Fix coming up momentarily.

Attachment: Patch

This should improve things; only force it to be unscrollable in print/print preview.
