Empty space when on list view and when back to icon view (due to GTKVPaned objects)
Description: Ubuntu 19.10 Release: 19.10
nautilus: Installed: 1:3.34.1-1ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:3.34.1-1ubuntu1
Expected behavior:
- (1) Open nautilus in list view OR (2) Open Nautilus in icon view and then switch to list view
- List view occupies all the space between the top bar and the bottom.
- Switch to icon view
- Icon view occupies all the space between the top bar and the bottom.
Actual Behavior
- (1) Open nautilus in list view OR (2) Open Nautilus in icon view and then switch to list view
- List view occupies approximately 55% of the space between the top bar and the bottom. Approximately 45% of the space between the top bar and the bottom is blank (the upmost part).
- Switch to icon view
- Icon view occupies approximately 55% of the space between the top bar and the bottom. Approximately 45% of the space between the top bar and the bottom is blank (the upmost part).
Observations:
- The side bar doesn't seem to affect the bug.
- By Starting nautilus in icon view the bug doesn't occur. In this case it's only triggered when switching to list view.
- There are only 2 known ways to revert the bug: (1) when on icon view, clicking on "Other Locations", and then back to any section. (2) by restarting nautilus. There is no known way to revert the bug in list view.
I am on Ubuntu 19.10 64Bit Using Gnome and Gnome Shell 3.34.1-1ubuntu1.
Screenshots: (1) Open Nautilus in Icon View
(2) Switch to List View (bug occurs)
(2) Switch back to Icon View (bug remains)
EDIT: Using the GTK+ Inspector, I could find out that there are 2 "GTKVPaned" objects generated at the top of screen, which I could set the property "visible" to FALSE in both of them and the bug is gone (until I restart nautilus).
Screenshots (Erased the name of some files)
This bug happens with any and every folder and is not reproducible in Nautilus Flatpak nightly version.
