No scroll bar in source view in Chrome – Grammarly extension conflict

[Solved]

Robert W 10 years ago

I just upgraded to version 2.6.13 and found that if I view a page’s source in Chrome, there’s no scroll bar. I can only see the first 30 or so lines of code. The scroll bar is there when viewing in standard mode (and it’s there for a millisecond after clicking the Source button, until the page fully renders). The problem isn’t present in Firefox.

I’m using Chrome Version 39.0.2171.71 and Firefox 33.0.2 with Windows 7.

I upgraded to Chrome 39.0.2171.95 and the situation is a little better. There’s still no scroll bar, but I can now use the down arrow or a search to get to items that are lower on the page.

Hello Robert,

thank you for the bug report!

I’m not able to reproduce the issue in Chrome 39.0.2171.71 m on Windows 7. The only weird thing I’m noticing is that the source code view jumps to the end of the document.

Could you have a look at Settings -> FV WordPress Flowplayer -> Height of FCKEditor? We are using “30”, perhaps you have 0 or some other weird value in your configuration.

Thanks,
Martin

Thanks, Martin. I, too, have the height set at 30 rows.

Hello Robert,

could you please check if you are not using some custom theme for the browser, or if the zoom level is set to 100%, or if there is any browser extension which could cause this?

Thanks,
Martin

The culprit appears to be Grammarly:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/grammarly-spell-checker-g/kbfnbcaeplbcioakkpcpgfkobkghlhen
When I disable it the scroll bar reappears.

The Grammarly add-on for Firefox doesn’t cause this problem.
