I have been inserting debugging in formation and here is a trace that I am getting when I click on the Skype entry in the indicator applet. For some reason, whenever the items in a menu change, then all items of the menu are removed and then inserted again. For Skype this seems to happen every single time I open the menu.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 965953] Re: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom
@Ian Lane: The issue happens only when the panel is at the bottom, not at the top. The issue also most frequently happens with Skype, but also sometimes with other applets such as network-manager or dropbox. It appears particularly after the menuitems in the menu change, such as when a new Wireless network has been detected or the network adaper looses/gains a connection. Try pulling the network cabel from your notebook and the network-manager menu will collapse to 0px height.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 965953] Re: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom
It shouldn't be hard to reproduce, I noticed it immediately after upgrading. Just use the gnome classic session, add a bottom panel, and set the indicator applet on the bottom panel in Precise. The WiFi indicator is the easiest to reproduce the issue as it updates frequently. Sound indicator is another example, when it changes tracks. Try scrubbing left and right across the indicators. The patch above is a sort of fix, but it adds a new bug where frequently instead of being too small, the indicator menus become massive and reach nearly to the top of the screen. I've been living with this bug for a long time as a bottom panel user of Precise :/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/965953 Title: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Invalid Status in Indicator Applet: Incomplete Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The indicator applet, installed by default in classic session of Precise, appears with just some up and down scroll arrows, and I have to scroll down before it fills in and shows the 3 items, and then the scroll arrows disappear.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 965953] Re: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom
Thanks for the patch - I'm not sure about it though; it seems odd to me to call gtk_widget_set_size_request() twice, once after an idle delay. Can you help us to understand what you're trying to achieve here? I'm subscribing Ted (an indicator-applet developer) in case he can think of a fix for this bug quickly. However, I can't make the described issue happen myself. Can someone give more detailed steps to reproduce it? ** Changed in: indicator-applet Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/965953 Title: Indicator menus are too short and scroll when opened from screen bottom Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit: Invalid Status in Indicator Applet: Incomplete Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The indicator applet, installed by default in classic session of Precise, appears with just some up and down scroll arrows, and I have to scroll down before it fills in and shows the 3 items, and then the scroll arrows disappear.

The patch fixed the problem with the menus being too small for me. I also have the brief flicker with the menu popping up maximized at first, but I can live with that. Thanks for the fix.
