Description Werner Keil

2010-11-01 15:09:36 EDT

Projects with Nova L&F created around the week between Oct 13 and 20, 2010 share a CSS/rendering problem. The horizontal browser scrollbar is always present, even if the page content is far from wider than the browser window.

This applies at least to Sapphire, Sphinx and UOMo.

Tested browsers are Chrome, Firefox 3/4 and IE7/8, all showing the same problem.

http://www.eclipse.org/gemini/
is equally affected as seem all other Gemini subprojects.

This raises the question, whether Nova L&F as such could have something to do with it.

The problem here is with the #bigbuttons style that holds well big buttons.

Since it is inheriting style information from its parents it has a 980px width but then is set to appear 420px from the left in order to move it over.

Specifying the width to be 560px or less will fix the problem.

#bigbuttons {
	position: relative;
	left: 420px;
	top: -200px;
        width: 560px;
}

Thanks, I also noticed, Woolsey has a better handling of this and the big buttons in general, so I'll check out its PHP and related code to see what I could apply to UOMo.

It isn't, see comments of 329028. This bug is still open, most prominent new case is EGit.

Should be fixed via CSS
