Follow-up Comment #5, bug #20372 (project mypaint):

Gah!, Gna!
This stupid bug tracker ate my comment again due to a stupid "verbatim" marker
typo. It desperately needs a preview feature.

Just appending a (hopefully fixed) copy of the text the tracker ate on the www
view; sorry for the bug noise everyone.

----------------------8<----------------------
Something to try: please locate your gui/colors/paletteview.py file and
uncomment line 768 in _PaletteGridLayout.update_layout(), which should read 


           print "DEBUG:", self._sizes


once it has been uncommented. This file is installed as
/usr/share/mypaint/gui/colors/paletteview.py if you are using the PPA package,
and you will need to edit it with superuser privileges. The command to use for
KDE is:


kdesu kate /usr/share/mypaint/gui/colors/paletteview.py


which can be run from the Alt+F2 dialog.

They try to run MyPaint again from a terminal, and see it it keeps spinning on
that code - you should see it tumbling through several sets of widget
dimensions and not being able to settle.



Finally, try altering line 398 in the same file (in PaletteView.__init__) to
read:


        self.set_policy(gtk.POLICY_NEVER, gtk.POLICY_ALWAYS)


instead of


        self.set_policy(gtk.POLICY_NEVER, gtk.POLICY_AUTOMATIC)


In other words, always display the vertical scrollbar. Does this fix it?




As an aside, the reason behind this this could be theme related; let me know
how your settings differ from the default Kubuntu ones: it my help me to
replicate the issue here and test things for myself.

I'm using the defaults; oxygen-gtk theme, and standard Kubuntu settings in
System Settings > Application Appearance > Gtk Configuration:

* GTK2 theme: oxygen-gtk
* GTK3 theme: oxygen-gtk
* Font: Abyssinica SIL 12
* GTK style toolbar: Icons only
* Show Icons in GTK Buttons: OFF
* Show Icons in GTK Menus: OFF
* Icons Theme: Oxygen White
* Fallback Theme: Oxygen White

Not the same thing as the Defaults button at all, so I assume it's a Kubuntu
default.

---------------------->8----------------------

Hopefully that makes it through.
