[regression] qml-api-test::WebView_flickableLikeAPI::test_WebView_flickableLikeAPI() fails in trunk

[Olivier Tilloy]

As of revision 903 of lp:oxide (perhaps earlier), qml-api-test::WebView_flickableLikeAPI::test_WebView_flickableLikeAPI() is consistently failing when run on desktop:

    1: FAIL! : qml-api-test::WebView_flickableLikeAPI::test_WebView_flickableLikeAPI() Compared values are not the same
    1: Actual (): 185
    1: Expected (): 200
    1: Loc: [/home/osomon/dev/phablet/oxide/trunk/qt/tests/qmltests/api/tst_WebView_flickableLikeAPI.qml(39)]

Most likely related, the thumb of the horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the view appears in the wrong place (shifted downwards).

This might be because of https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/-t1PfZBC4iY.

Indeed, appending cc::switches::kDisablePinchVirtualViewport to the command line switches in InitializeCommandLine(…) appears to fix both regressions.

I'm going to fix this in 1.5 by turning off the pinch viewport after branching (I'll still need to try to figure out a proper fix in trunk)

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

Dropping the importance and un-milestoning this, as pinch-viewport is currently disabled on desktop for other reasons

[Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson)]

So, the failure here is that WebView.viewportWidth isn't reduced by the amount of space that the scrollbars take up
