Bug Description

A scrollbar has been added to the text-input section of gnome-calculator. This makes one of my most frequently used operations impossible: clicking to position the cursor at the end of the (right-aligned) input line, in order to enter additional operations after a calculation. The scrollbar expands as soon as the mouse cursor approaches the end of line, forcing you to click one digit to the left of the end, manually move to the right with the arrow keys, and then continue to paste or enter more operations. Please fix this by adding a right-hand margin to the input field the width of the hover scrollbar.

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 1636646

and then change the status of the bug back to "New".

Please add any additional information that you think might be relevant. Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the bug report. If we do not hear from you this bug report will expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you again
Paul White
