Anca, do you have an update on this bug? Is that a recent regression?

This issue is a regression, but an old one, I could narrow a regression window to the following:

Note that, while attempting to search the regression range, I couldn't reproduce this issue on every machine. I don't know what could trigger it, using two test machines with the same Ubuntu 18.04.4 (graphics AMD Rs780), I ended up reproducing it on one machine and not on the other. Also, the issue is reproducible with an Ubuntu 18.04.4 (graphics Intel HD Graphics 5500). If reproducible once, the issue is always reproducible on that test machine, with the provided steps on a clean or dirty profile.

If I can provide additional information let me know!

Thanks, given that this is an old regression, a potential fix could ride the trains.

The priority flag is not set for this bug.
:heycam, could you have a look please?

The attached screencast appears to be broken (or incompatible with my system, at least) - could you try again to provide a screenshot of the issue? Thanks.

Huh, interesting. What was the current setting of the Paper Size option, before you clicked to open the menu? Normally, I'd expect the popup to appear with the current option aligned with the menu so that it starts out where the mouse is.

If you close the popup (but don't close the Print dialog) and then open it again, does it behave the same every time?

  • A4

If you close the popup (but don't close the Print dialog) and then open it again, does it behave the same every time?

  • Yes, is the same behavior, the only way the space disappears (while the dropdown is opened) is when it is scrolled down until the extra space is no longer visible and then scrolled all the way up, but once I re-opened it, the issue reproduces all over again

  • the white space is getting larger while scrolling down the dropdown, the image provided in comment 6 was took after scrolling a little bit down.

This is not an issue in our code. I can see the same issue on gedit on Ubuntu 18.04.
