Right Click - "Copy" item is different Font on highlight/mouseover

[Alex Bruce]

When you right click on a folder or file and scroll down the options.. the Copy item changes fonts or allignment which causes the menu to move down to compensate.

Thank you for your bug report, the screencast show the issue indeed but I can't confirm it there in a normal session or a guest session, is that specific to nautilus only?

[Alex Bruce (alexbruce7)]

yes with Nautilus.

You are right I should have confirmed it a bit more. Closing Nautilus windows and reopening and issue was gone.

Although right clicking and clicking including left draging then right clicking quickly after caused me to recreate the problem although this time with the "Zoom Out" item in the right click menu in blank space.. again the cleared after closing the window

Then again seemingly random with one of the "Open With" application items.

seems to be hard to reproduce reliably. any tips?

what do you mean "right clicking and clicking including left draging then right clicking"? that's a pretty confusing sentence, right clicking opens the menu, then where do you click,drag,right click?

[Alex Bruce (alexbruce7)]

Sorry, yes rather confusing.

Basically in an effort to try and make the issue occur again I was:

- Create folder.. right click.. scroll up and down
- Left click drag folder and immediately right click afterwards (in blank
space or on another folder).
- Left then immediately right click in blank space or on a folder
- right click on "bread crumb" names also and other aspects of Nautilus
- perform all of these in combination over a length of time

All of this brought mixed results and like I say haven't found a specific
method to reproduce the issue. It did happen again, this time with right
click on "bread crumb" folder and the second to last item changed alignment
when highlighting.

Strange issue. Can further debugging logs be utilised?

Strange bug indeed, I can't reproduce it and is low on my priority list for now but I will let other triagers pick it up if they have time

[Ads20000 (ads20000)]

Is this reproducible in Ubuntu 16.04 or 17.10?
