Text editing window expands instead of creating vertical scroll bar

In the last few days, I have noticed that when I try to edit or post to Wordpress.com the vertical scroll bar no longer appears on the text editing box. Instead the box just gets progressively larger which makes it very difficult to get to other items on the WordPress editing screen, such as tags and categories. This problem seems to have arisen during the v31.0 auto-upgrade. Is anybody else having this issue and what steps can I take to solve it? (FYI, I tried modifying the setting described in another response about a similar issue using the about:config screen, with no success.)

I don't know whether your dashboard has the "Visual" and "Text" buttons, but I believe the Visual uses CKEditor or another WYSIWYG editor and the Text editor might be a simpler design. Are both affected?
I searched around to see whether I could find Wordpress.com support threads or other stories about it and I can't. So I'll fall back on some general suggestions:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove WordPress.com cookies without affecting other sites.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
To rule out extensions as a possible culprit, could you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions, some advanced features, and some custom settings. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* (menu bar) Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Note: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox closes, a small dialog should appear: click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

  • Possible to have vertical scroll bar for a cell in ALV Grid (using methods)

    Hi All,
    I have a field with length 100 characters on a ALV Grid (using methods)..User doesn't want to scroll all the 100 characters horizontally to see the whole text rather he wants to have a vertical scroll bar for the cell so that he can scroll vertically.
    Is it possible to have split the cell text into lines and have a vertical scroll bar for a cell in ALV Grid?
    Regards
    Jaker.

    Thanks for the suggestion Balu.I tried this , but while scrolling,headers also getting scrolled.
    Becoz of this , if i scroll down to the last row,headers are getting hidden.
    Headers should always be static.only the data should scroll.
    Since h:datatable is being rendered as one table , i can div tag for this table alone.
    If i have seperate datatable for headers alone i can do this .But i should not use two datatables.

  • Boris 3D text editing window won't open without deleting FCP preferences

    So, in my FCP7 projects, the Boris 3D text editing window won't open without deleting FCP preferences first. I've tried new projects, old projects, open all new windows on top settings. Once I delete the preferences, viola, opens right up. I can rebuild my preferences and after just a few days it won't open again... without preference delete.
    I'm on a Macbook Pro 17'" i7 and do most of my editing on a 27" Apple Cinema Display. This is the only reason I could come up with. However I did some editing from the Macbook's screen and after 1 day, the Boris 3D editing window again refused to open. I have no idea. Is this is a known bug, etc.?
    Help!

    With Final Cut not running, trash the Boris Title 3D preference file.
    /Library/Preferences/Title 3D Preferences
    Also, you could have a corrupt or duplicate font file. Open FontBook and check it out.

  • Editing a Vertical Scroll Bar

    Can you edit the color of a vertical scroll bar when creating a data list?  All I've been
    able to get is that default sky blue color.

    Yes, you can edit the complete look and feel of your scrollbar.  Select the scroll bar an keep double clicking until you drill down into the artwork for the different layers.

  • How to get vertical scroll bars for a window?

    hi All,
    i have a window in my smart form ( not main window ) . it displays long text of a PO header. since user can enter huge amount of long text i want to enable vertical scroll bar in smart form window so that it shows all the long text.
    How to enable that for a window in smart form? any pointers would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • RH7 - Viewing WebHelp in IE9 creates two vertical scroll bars

    An extra frameset appears to be in the main htm page (attached) that is generated by RoboHelp.  Here’s the frameset:
    <frameset cols="100%,*" frameborder=no border=0>
      <frame src="whnjs.htm">
      <frame src="whskin_blank.htm" noresize>
    </frameset>
    When viewing the help in a Telerik RadHtmlPlaceholder control in Internet Explorer 9, this frameset causes our help content to appear twice.  The content is stacked on top of each other, and a vertical scroll bar is added.
    Manually removing this frameset resolves the issue.
    Has anyone else seen this issue, and if so, are there any RH options for resolving it?

    While I was using RoboHelp 7, I worked around the frameset problem by deleting the following code from the main pag in my help system, as suggested in the forum:
    <frameset cols="100%,*" frameborder=no border=0>
      <frame src="whnjs.htm">
      <frame src="whskin_blank.htm" noresize>
    </frameset>
    When I did so after generating help in RoboHelp 7, I found that the extra frameset disappeared from IE9. Later I upgraded to RoboHelp 9 for an automated solution to the extra frameset in IE9. But I find that the problem persists. On WebHelp pages with more than a single screenful of text, the double frameset appears, and the content for the page one is viewing is stacked on top of the Welcome page, much as described by TechComm2 at the beginning of this thread. In IE9, with content generated in RoboHelp 9, an extra frameset appears whether I delete the abovementioned code or leave it in.
    My project is used as contextual help. Our developers have placed extra security on the project so that a user cannot view the help without first logging in to the application it describes. Because of this, I am asking our developers to help me look for a solution to extra framesets. But I did want to come back to this forum with an update and ask for additional comments from you-all as well.
    Thank you.

  • On every website, my right vertical scroll bar is missing and all of my Toolbar bookmarks unless I minimize the window, click "view" and "full page." How do i get it back to NORMAL?

    When I hit "full page" the right vertical scroll bar re-appears, but my bookmark toolbars, my bing bar, and pretty much the entire top 2 inches of my screen disappears. When all of these things are showing, the right vertical scroll bar disappears, and the entire webpage shifts to the right, so I can't see most of the right side of the page. How do I fix this?

  • Adobe Reader move the vertical scroll bar from left to right

    Hi,
    is it possible to move the vertical scroll bar from left to right in Adobe Reader 9?
    If not, are you planning to implement this functionality?

    I meant from right to left, sorry
    You see, I'm left handed and when I use the scroll bar that is on the right side with the left hand I don't actually see the content of the page, because my left hand is covering the screen (I'm browsing the internet in tablet mode and I use the pen to navigate between pages).
    My system is a Tablet PC with Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 and Adobe Reader 9.3.2.
    P.S. can you edit my post so the google indexes it right? (
    from right to left
    instead of "from left to right")

  • How to create 2 scroll bar in 2 canvas

    Hello All,
    I will appreciate if somebody knows how to create 2 scroll bars in 2 Content canvases and all items text item belongs to one data block.
    In data block property it shows only one scroll bar. Their is no property of scroll bar in canvas.
    Regards,
    Atif

    Go to the layout editor.
    Take the Stacked canvas tool in the toolbox
    draw a stacked canvas on the content canvas (the stacked can could be larger than the content one)
    edit you item properties to display on the content canvas
    adjust the window to the same width and weight properties than the content canvas.
    The simplest way it to use the datablock wizard to create the data block, then indicate to show items not on the content canvas but the stacked canvas.

  • Removing the Vertical scroll bar from the content area.

    Hello,
    Is there a way to remove the vertical scroll bar from the content area?
    I am trying to create a new light portal frame work.
    Everything works fine except that I see two vertical scroll bars, one from the content area and another from the page(frame).
    Thanks in advance.
    -Sudheer

    Hi
    There are a couple of ways in which to achieve this
    1) Try and make the content flat. What I mean by this is that the content area (when using the standard light framework) doesn't contain an iframe, meaning that the iview defined on the page has "EMBEDDED" isolation mode. This should mean that you only have one scrollbar (if the content extends past the size of the browser)
    2) If you need to make the iview URL isolation, then try and get the domain of the content to be of a similar domain to your portal server, i.e. your portal is portal.company.com and the content is content.company.com. In this way you can make the pages expand.
    NOTE: One thing to note is that when using URL isolation iviews doesn't allow the automatic expanding of the iframe content. This is because the standard javascript doesn't allow this. Therefore you may have to write your own javascript function (or content area page) to do this
    I hope this helps

  • How to fix double vertical scroll bar in responsive output

    After implementing the solution provided for the question 'Responsive HTML5 Output: How to auto adjust the screen resolution for all devices?', the function bar in output does not appear and also another vertical scroll bar in the output. I edited the max-width value in the layoutfix.min.css file and fixed the function bar issue. How can I do away with the additional vertical scroll bar?

    I've looked into the issue.
    @Delennish: In your case, the size of the iframe is too large, or you have an extra empty element below the iframe. You can try 2 things:
    1. Best solution but may have side effects: In the main.css, add the following code:
    div.contentholder { overflow: hidden !important;}
    For this option, please check for undesired side effects.
    2. Works, but is ugly: In the main.css, add the following code:
    div.floatholder iframe.wTopic { height: 95% !important;}
    Try playing with the height setting until the 2nd scrollbar disappears.
    @CarolW: The layout you're using is very old. I've made a new responsive layout with TOC only. Please use that one instead: http://www.wvanweelden.eu/sites/default/files/attachments/Theme1_Standard_TOC_Only.zip (I'll update my site with this new version later.)

  • Help with a vertical scroll bar issue with a List component

    hi. i have a basic <s:list> that uses an XMLListCollection as it's data provider and a very basic itemrenderer. when a row in the list is clicked a function gets the list.selectedIndex then populates some text fields with more xml data. that all works fine.. the problem i have is that the vertical scroll bar on the list seems to be "clickable" - just like a row in the list. the scroll bar scrolls normally but when it's clicked the selectedIndex becomes -1 which is not helpful b/c the value -1 is passed to the XMLListCollection.
    any ideas? cheers.

    thanks but still problematic...surely the <s:List> component shouldn't return a value when the scrollbar thumb is clicked? i created a very basic list (see below) and made the list dimensions short enough so that there is a vertical scrollbar and found that when the scrollbar thumb is clicked the trace(event.currentTarget.selectedIndex) returns a number. that's annoying b/c i just want a selectedIndex value for a row that is clicked not the scrollbar.
    any ideas to get around? cheers

  • Textarea: strange vertical scroll bar

    Hi, everyone
    I implemented textarea with JTextPane, code is below.
    The problem is that,
    when there is only one pane in the content of HBox, the vertical scroll bar runs normal;
    but when there is 2 panes, the vertical scroll bar changes between visible and invisible again and again.
    My code wrong? or a bug of JavaFX?

    Hi,
    I've just used the following SQL statement to create a tabular form:
    select
    "EMPNO",
    "EMPNO" EMPNO_DISPLAY,
    "ENAME",
    "PHONE1",
    APEX_ITEM.TEXTAREA(5, PHONE2, 5, 50, 'style="overflow-Y:scroll"') "PHONE2"
    from "#OWNER#"."EMP"PHONE2 is a small field, so you probably won't be able to save anything, but this statement is used in: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=33642:100
    Both in IE7 and FF3, the scroll area appeared on the right of the box.
