Bug Description
I am using appindicator-1.0 in conjunction with Gtk+2.0 menu. Menu consist of constant items and many dynamically added items. If the screen pixel resolution is not so good as it must be then the last menu items are not visible. Ubuntu 16.04 automatically add top and bottom bars with "^" and "v" arrows to scroll menu when mouse pointer is over these bars. But in Linux Ubuntu 18.04 (and 19.04 too) such scrolling bars are not appearing.
On the other hand menu scrolling is working fine anywhere into usual GTK window with menu bar (without using appindicator). Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 use the same 12.10.1 libappindicator version.
Here is the test c program which illustrates the issue. It works fine in Linux Ubuntu 16.04 and has the described above problem in Linux 18.04:
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include <libappindicato
#define LOGO_PNG "/home/
AppIndicator* c_indicator;
GtkWidget* c_menu;
void menu_quit_
{
gtk_
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
gtk_init(&argc, &argv);
int i;
GtkWidget* item;
char title[128];
c_menu = gtk_menu_new();
item = gtk_menu_
g_signal_
gtk_
gtk_
gtk_
for (i = 1; i <= 100; ++i) {
item = gtk_menu_
}
//
c_indicator = app_indicator_
app_
app_
app_
gtk_main();
return 0;
}
