gEDA-bug: [Bug 876299] Re: gschem attribute editor has textentry with small height

[Peter Clifton <pcjc2@xxxxxxxxx>]

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

Title:
  gschem attribute editor has textentry with small height

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Confirmed
Status in âgeda-gafâ package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The attribute editor dialog in gschem 1.6.2.20110115 on Ubuntu 11.10
  shows up with its textentry for adding a name=value attribute having
  too small height.  It appears to be only 1 pixel.  With some fiddling,
  it is possible to enter text (but not see it, of course).  This
  problem does not occur on Ubuntu 11.04 with the same revision of
  gschem so I guess that some behaviour has changed in gtk+.
