Same issue also confirmed on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 16.10. The cleaner workaround I've achieved is to create a custom desktop entry with different file and app name (Name=Dia-X or whatever) on your "~/.local/share/applications/", adding "Exec=env LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 dia %F" as mobidyc pointed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

KEFIRis a light, refreshing and nutritionally sound drink. It is a fermented milk beverage prepared by inoculating milk with kefir grains popular in Nothern and Eastern Europe. Initially KEFIR was accidently discovered http://theorganifigreenjuicereview.com/ when shepherds used to carry milk in skin bags and the milk used to ferment by itself and resulted into a carbonated drink. The introduction of kefir grains in the milk changes its chemical structure and leads to fermentation introducing a sour or tangy flavour to the beverage. The fermentation process yields two by products viz. CO2 and ethanol (alcohol), thus making it carbonated and a bit alcoholic*. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Issue confirmed on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. running dia through the command: LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 dia solves the issue.

[Bug 1011446] Re: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable
I am still having the same issue with Ubuntu 13.10, Gnome Desktop and Dia 0.97.2. I have fixed it by editing the start script /usr/bin/dia to have the LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 before the dia launch. /usr/bin/dia is now as follows: #!/bin/sh # # Wrapped that calls dia in integrated version # LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 dia-normal --integrated "$@" This fixes the issue with the comment boxes as far as I can tell and still allows launching by calling dia from Alt+F2 or terminal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Relating to the link in my last comment, the email at which it points appears to be from a GNOME bugzilla report - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689162 - regarding the issue, but that seems to be marked as a duplicate of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662728 which appears to have been closed with the conclusion that the root cause seems to be "some misbehaviour" in overlay-scrollbar. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #689162 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689162 ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #662728 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662728 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I too can confirm this bug with dia-gnome 0.97.2-5 on Ubuntu 12.04.3 (amd64). I did however find another workaround - from http://osdir.com/ml/dia- list/2013-09/msg00034.html - whereby starting Dia with an environmental variable set to disable Ubuntu's overlay scrollbar does seem to stop the unwanted behaviour. Therefore it would appear to me that this bug could well be down to an incompatibility between Dia and the aforementioned overlay scrollbar ('overlay-scrollbar'?). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1011446] Re: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable
I also have an issue with the current state of the comment section. As an interesting note while I have the properties dialog open and then switch themes to "High Contrast" this remedies the problem and you can then revert back to your usual theme. But if you switch to "High Contrast" and open a new properties dialog the comment section reverts back to the bugged state. So it appears like the act of switching remedies the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011446 Title: UML drawing tools' comment fields are too small to be usable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dia/+bug/1011446/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
