yes, this has been driving me crazy and i haven't figured out the cause. i didn't think it could be based on the room, though I found out why this happens once I noticed the same bug in the chatbar. It's a mix of specific circumstances: 1. When the Room Information drawer is opened the first time, it doesn't have a scrollbar. It only gets one once the Member List is loaded and is large enough to be scrollable. 2. This forces the drawer to resize horizontally, which can incur in the description text being moved very slightly. 3. This movement causes text elision in long links, causing them to become multiline. 4. This new line update naturally increases the vertical height of the drawer. So the conditions to reproduce the bug are the following: 1. It must be in a text field with a hidden-by-default scrollbar (like the Room Information description or the chatbar). 2. The text itself must be long. 3. You need to have a link that is sufficiently long enough to become a multiline link once a scrollbar is added. 4. This bug is more likely to occur in smaller text fields, as those naturally lead to more multiline text. I almost forgot: a way to notice this bug happening is with something like the #kde-promo:kde.org group . Reproducible with my screen resolution (1920x1080). There you can see that in its initial state (without scrollbar, the description should show: KDE Communication and Promotion: http:// community.kde.org/Promo : Subscribe https://mail.kde.org/ mailman/listinfo/kde-promo : Phab project / workboard: https://phabricator.kde.org/project/board/222/ : Goals: https://community.kde.org/Promo%27s_Long_Term_Goals But once the scrollbar is added, it becomes: KDE Communication and Promotion: http:// community.kde.org/Promo : Subscribe https:// mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-promo : Phab project / workboard: https://phabricator.kde.org/project/board/222/ : Goals: https://community.kde.org/ Promo%27s_Long_Term_Goals The exact same thing happens with #kde-sysadmin:kde.org for example. With #kde-streamlined-app-dev:kde.org it's a little different because what becomes a multiline is the title of the group itself, without requiring any link. This seems to me like a bug with how text wrap is done. (btw I meant to say text wrap, not text elision earlier 😅 ) |
