Opera / Chrome has scrolling issues in Textbox
-
Using: Opera v 23.0.1522.77 (most recent version, apparently) on a Windows 8.1 64bit-System
When composing a multiline reply with the Discourse Reply-Box using the up-arrow to navigate to the top of the reply (which due to this being multiline is scrolled out of the box) will not actually scroll the viewport with the cursor.
I will pad this post to make some screenshots.
I am not really sure how it is even possible for this not to work.
I don't want to @ the Discourse-team for this but it is amusing when things you never thought could break, break.
And yes, it's my fault for using Opera, clearly!
Pictures:
I highlighted the position of the current cursor location.Now I press ↑:
Please note how the text-area is still highlighted and the scrollbar refuses to go higher. It even refuses to adjust when I input new characters outside the viewport.Filed Under: What is this, I don't even!

can repro on Chrome.
so we can add that to the bug list

I got to "Opera has" before I burst out laughing.

can repro on Chrome.
There, take your repro on chrome and start crying because Discourse
Filed Under: Could not reproduce on Firefox, interestingly enough. I thought you guys hated that browser
Addendum: also added Chrome to the title, so you can read the title without dying of laughter

if you insist. what size river would you like me to cry?

No, no, not you. I was scared blakeyrat would die of laughter so I used your repro to bring him back to normal.
You can see that clearly if you look at the tiny "→ [blakeyrat image]" on the top right of my post.Unless you WANT to cry. In that case, you could try meta. It might bring their attention to this bug.
Actually, while I am still awake @riking, you have been in these parts of the internet more often recently, so I am taking a gamble and mentioning you. Maybe you could have a look at it (or delegate it to whoever). It is obviously not a high priority but seems reproducable on multiple browsers.

hmm.... tricky. I'll call Grimm and see what we can work out.

If it was easy, I could probably do it myself. I thought you guys were experts!
Filed Under: I am the expert in not being an expert! | Also I am suprisingly bad at crying!

Wrong Styx?

As an FYI, this is a Chrome bug, not a Discourse bug

Aside from the fact I wasn't actually commenting on the bug itself, just trying ot add a little humour to the situation... Chrome 29? And it's still broken in Chrome 38? Ugh.

I was going to post this before, but I had figured that it was already listed long ago.

To be fair, it's only seven minutes between those versions being released :)

Stupid Discourse ;), I didn't actually mean to reply to you...
, I meant to reply to @Kuro. I likely pushed a wrong key while navigation, saw the editor and went, ah! Good, I know where the Discourse Team sits on this one... pass the blame ;)
-
Dont worry, since I am the topic creator, I get notified anyway. So at least you got to chat with @arantor , I read it anyway, you got a reply from me now. I accepted the bug as known and even read the bugreport @Sam wrote. I still think maybe one could work around the transparent border issue by not using a transparent border but what do I know ;D
Where does the Discourseteam sit on "changing who the reply goes to by editing"?
@arantor Can you cry that song for me? I think that might be good enough for now! Unless I need a real river in the future.

Make a new reply to the right person and delete the old post.

Yes, yes they are.
good luck convincing Jeff about it.
We're lucky we can edit posts at all!

Good question, not sure I've seen anything on that topic though
