Bug#528255: iceape-composer: right click context menu shrinks to scrollable

[Mark Hobley]

Package: iceape-browser
Version: 1.1.14-1
Severity: minor

I am using iceape-composer, and I am editing tables. When I right click a cell
within the table, I notice that the menu that appears sometimes has its bottom
options missing and a downward scroll arrow appears at the bottom of the menu.
This occurs, even though there is sufficient space to display the missing
options, making the downward scroll unnecessary. Note that this does not occur
all the time, and behaviour depends on the position of the cell on the screen.
The problem was observed when editing a table cell in the middle of the screen.

Note that "flickering menus" (#503360) may also occur when performing a similar
edit.

My screen is 800 x 600 (SVGA), and the problem has been observed on both the
the icewm and jwm window mananger.

Mark.
