Description D.S. Ljungmark 2011-04-03 09:36:57 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

When the preview pane is loading for a message, it starts moving with some 5-10 pixels up and down, causing a very jarring experience that leads to something akin to motion sickness.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.load a mailing list with preview pane active
2. skip to the next message
3. watch the preview pane move up and down repeatedly
Actual Results:  
preview pane moving itself appearantly based on the speed of the font rendering

Expected Results:  
A very smooth and fluid font rendering without any movement.

Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2011-04-03 12:01:40 UTC 
It's due to the Adwaita theme.  Already fixed upstream for 3.1.  I'll backport it for 3.0.1 once GNOME's hard code freeze has ended.
