Description Samuel C. Tyler 2014-06-11 14:33:44 UTC
Description of problem:
I have many desktop environments installed and can only see a few of them when I click on the gear icon in GDM. The menu does not scroll nor does it reposition itself so I can see more of the list.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
GDM 3.10.0.1

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install many (more than 10) Desktop environments
2. Ensure you are using GDM and go to the login screen
3. Click the gear icon to select an environment

Actual results:
Only a few results show, with no scrolling or rearranging to allow selection other than that which is shown.

Expected results:
Menu scrolls or fills screen to allow selection of all items.

This is also happening on Fedora 21.

Comment 2 Andre Robatino 2014-12-23 16:02:43 UTC
Exists in Rawhide as well as 20 and 21.

This appears to be a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054497 . I'm not marking it as such since that one refers to "window manager" instead of DE which I think is the wrong term.
