Ok, I'm not sure if this is our bug or not, but it appears to be a bad interaction between the GtkTextView widget we use packed inside a GtkScrollWindow widget, with Ubuntu's expanded "overlay scrollbar" feature.
It seems like we don't get a minimum height allocation when the overlay scrollbar is in use, despite the button widget along side our text entry taking up a certain height. It is true that we don't specify a minimum height for that widget though - and that could well be the underlying problem. For now, you can work around the issue by starting gschem from the command prompt with: LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 gschem ** Project changed: geda => geda-gaf (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: geda Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: geda Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: geda Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876299 Title: gschem attribute editor has textentry with small height To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/876299/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
