Bug Description

My bookmarks are grouped in folders. *Sometimes*, chromium won't display the contents of such a subfolder (see attached screenshot).

The contents are NOT shown, instead, only a (transparent!) box is rendered. Only the borders of the box are faintly visible.
In my screenshot, you can see the box to the left of the entry "Braunschweig".

Moving the mouse pointer away (so the box closes) and back (the box reopens) allows the contents to be rendered (that's my workaround). While moving the mouse pointer away, I get to see the invisible contents of the menu for a split second.

I tried to reproduce this with Firefox, but I didn't get this effect there, so I think it's a chromium issue.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time. Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 982822

and add any additional information that you think relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.
