Section tabs overlap tab arrows #1290

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
SEE attached picture for details.

How the problem appears:
-----------------------
If you open several sections or stylesheets so that the width of the tabs 
produced at the top of the view/code window is wider than the available, 
viewable space, arrows will appear at the upper right of the tab bar to allow 
the user to shift the tabs to the left or right.

System settings:
-----------------------
Using Windows Vista, SP1, and a 1280x800 pixel display setting. Also, using 
Mozilla as a default web viewer.

Problem Details:
-----------------------
On my system, the last tab displayed on the upper tab bar at any particular 
time (not the last available tab, but the last one displayed currently, i.e. 
you could click the right arrow to scroll to the last available tab if desired) 
visually overlaps the arrows buttons at the far right of the tab bar. 

Both the text, and a little Mozilla symbol that shows on each tab will visually 
collide with the arrow symbols depending on where the tabs fall in relation to 
the width of the tab bar (i.e., the arrow buttons look transparent and the tab 
text or mozilla symbol show through them making it difficult to see the arrow). 
It also makes you worried you will close your tab rather than scroll them if 
the X overlaps.

What it should do:
-----------------------
The rightmost tab displayed at any given time should resize and end at the 
leftmost edge of the LEFT arrow button (or right arrow button if it is 
displayed alone). At present, on my system, it ends at the rightmost edge of 
the RIGHT arrow button causing the visual interference. When only the right 
arrow is displayed, it ends halfway through the right arrow.

If you scroll all the tabs so you are seeing the rightmost tab (last tab), it 
will display correctly and resize that last tab to the left edge of the left 
arrow button. It needs to do this consistently.

Seems to display fine on Ubuntu.  As Sigil is only using Qt to manage the tabs, 
this isn't something that can be changed in Sigil.
