3D models file list scroll bar

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior]

When added more 3D models file that the window dialog allow to ft at the monitor, this list should use a scroll bar.
Check in the screensaved that I am not able to modify the coordinates.

Does this reproduce for anyone else on GTK? (It's fine on OSX.)

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

For clarify, it's (of course) depends of the monitor resolution and my version:

@Hildo, it shouldn't have anything to do with your monitor size. It would appear from your screen-shot that the dialog is growing with each additional 3D model. That shouldn't happen; it should just fill up the room available in the list and then start scrolling. The list should only grow if you drag the dialog larger (in which case the bottom half with the preview should grow slightly faster than the list).

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

After you, @jeff, shows the normal behavior, yes, it is not display dependent. I just realize on the "small" resolution display because, in the bigger one, the dialog keep expanding and but still fitting on display.

Yes, the no-scroll behavior happens on my Ubuntu (KiCad using Gtk2 as in version description) independent of the display resolution.

I could update the KiCad Nightly changing the Ubuntu PPA, but I still having problem to get the newest version (today 16-08-2018 I just got

kicad-nightly is already the newest version (201808100649+78ab5c3~84~ubuntu16.04.1)

But, return to the issue, in the "1 day more new release" (the PPA just give me a 1 date more new from the last one, but still 6 days out of date), the scroll bar are present, it just have some delay/freeze to respond to the mouse scroll wheel.

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

@Hildo, is the delay just the first time you scroll, or every time?

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

Every time (build 20180810, the last that I got), holding the left click and moving the scrooll appear normal.
I think will be better I get the last commit to comment in this report seen that just one day (on legacy PPA was 20180809) give me the scroll bar that wasn't present.

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

Today finally was released a new Nightly for Ubuntu (20180818), I hope that the problem with compilation was fix.
@jey, in this release the dialog box / scroll bar works normally, so I am marking this issue as concluded.

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

I am changing again because found a new behavior:
Every think is fine if I don't try to re-size the dialog box, even if I resize in the vertical direction is fine.
But if I re-size it in the horizontal or in the diagonal direction the fist issue is reproduced.

Cool. That reproduces for me on Mac, so I should be able to track it down.
