RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

Description of problem:
After launching a pdf file in Document Viewer (evince), window controls that are rendered as part of X and the application menus cannot be operated.
The mouse pointer changes to indicate it is ready to resize the window and all window controls, application controls, and trying to grab the top title bar to move the window is disabled.
The buttons doesn't respond to mouse clicks, we see the point alignment to the application window is wrong.
The menu, resizing, right side vertical scroll bar and top right corner application buttons for closing, full screen or minimise doesn't work.
If we move the mouse slowly towards left, I get control of the button which is towards the right.
We have to double click the title bar to maximize and then minimize to get things working.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5
evince-3.22.1-7.el7.x86_64
gtk3-3.22.26-4.el7_5.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a pdf file in evince.
2. Get a minimized window view of it. Clicking on the maximize window button twice.
3. Now move that window to the top left of the screen.
4. Resize the window from right to left (pull to the possible limit).
5. Close it and reopen the pdf with evince.
Now see that the point alignment to the application window is incorrect.
Actual results:
The mouse pointer alignment to the application window is incorrect.
Expected results:
Should be able to control the window without any problems.
Additional info:
We could see below error when launching evince.
(evince:8693): Gtk-WARNING **: Allocating size to EvSidebar 0x210a4e0 without calling gtk_widget_get_preferred_width/height(). How does the code know the size to allocate?
I suspected it to be https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767136
I tried the fix, but it only suppresses the 'Gtk-WARNING' message, but doesn't fix the problem.
