Bug Description

In Saucy, when a file is opened in gedit, and that file is edited outside gedit, a prompt appears if I want to reload the file or not. This is fine. However, above the prompt, there is a large gray area. If the prompt appears multiple times, the gray area may increase and cover half the window.

This did not occur in Raring.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review 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.

Ubuntu 13.10 (saucy) reached end-of-life on July 17, 2014.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu?

Please let us know if you do. Alternatively, this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.related
