Reassigning to gtk3, since as far as I can tell anaconda is doing everything that it needs to. The left column is a GtkTreeView added directly to a GtkScrolledWindow (via glade), so there should be no need for manual focus vadjustment changes. If you use arrow keys to move the selection further down, does it disappear from view completely, or do the next rows get scrolled up far enough to show up partially ?

If I use arrow keys to move the selection further down, it does disappear from view completely.But when I go through the language list with an arrow button it will show up at some language and then disappear from view again.For more detial please refer to the " RHEL7.2_LanguageSelectionList_TopToBottom" attachment gtk3-demo as shipped in gtk3-3.14.13-16.el7 has a treeview in a scrolledwindow (the sidebar) that works as expected. I think this needs to be debugged on the anaconda side a little further before concluding that "this is a gtk problem". Could this be caused the language changing as the selection changes? What else could cause an issue with the scroll adjustment? (In reply to David Shea from comment #6) > Could this be caused the language changing as the selection changes? What > else could cause an issue with the scroll adjustment? I don't know what you do when the language changes (reconstruct the entire ui ?), but that sounds plausible. I had occasion to play a bit with anaconda ui yesterday, and I noticed that the list scrolls a *little* when changing the selection, even after arrowing out of the visible range - it is just not enough to bring the selected row into visible range.

When the language changes anaconda will repopulate the locale list, retranslate a handful of widgets (the "Welcome to..." "What language...", and beta warning GtkLabels, the labels on the quit and continue buttons, and the placeholder text in the "Type here to search" GtkEntry), and possibly change the UI direction. One thing I notice is that if the language changes the height of the labels (for example, the switch from Assamese to Asturian), the height of the GtkGrid containing the two TreeViews will change.

If so, I would recommend to explicitly scroll that row into view at the same time By locale list I mean the tree on the right side of the window. Changing the selection on the left tree does not change the data in the left tree. And we do select and scroll_to_cell the first item on the right side. Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. |
Created attachment 1103465 [details] blue_highlight_bar_out_of_the_box Description of problem: During the anaconda GUI installation,when the install program starting showing welcome and let you select the language.Only use keyboard down arrow to select the language in the left middle box, there is a part of the list which I could not see the language is selected in the left middle box (actually the blue highlight bar is out of the box ),but I got the language changing on the GUI when I still press down arrow. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda 21.48.22.56-1 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Insert the install media into a bare machine 2.Only use keyboard down arrow or up arrow to select the language,when the welcome screen appear, and let you select the language. 3.Go through the language list Actual results: The blue highlight bar should always in the left middle box,and put the list going down as I press the down arrow. Expected results: The blue highlight bar go out of the box Additional info:
