Hi,

I did a fresh install of drupal and omega theme and then selected Hebrew as my default language(I have not downloaded any translation files). I found out that in Chrome a horizontal scrollbar is visible, in Bartik, however, it is not there. Can someone please check this.

Thanks in advance,
Perry.

Version: 7.x-3.0-beta3 » 7.x-3.0-rc2

my mistake about the version. I have tried both rc2 and the latest dev version with the same result.

In order to make it easy for anyone to see, please look at these two versions in chrome.

You will see that in English there is no horizontal scrollbar (as desired), however in RTL hebrew there is.

Thanks,
Perry.

I can confirm this in Chrome. However, I don't see whats causing this. The computes CSS for ALL elements is correct and I can't find any element that has a width like that anywhere. It seems to be plain empty space without (not even margin / padding). I am clueless here, sorry. Maybe some CSS guru knows the answer. Gonna ask Jesse Beach to take a look at this!

I don't see any immediate reason for this either... definitely odd behavior...

can you try adding a CSS rule like this one:

 html, body {
   width: 100%;
   height: 100%;
}

Just to see what that may do... when I open firebug for chrome on the HE version of the page, the firebug is cut off at the "proper" left edge, but scrolling all the way to the left on the horizontal scroll cuts off the firebug display as well... VERY odd...

Hi Himerus,

Thanks for looking into it. I have put those code in global.css, but it did not make any dent. Btw, I have also created a site using Amitaibu's "zen ninesixty" theme few months ago and had exactly the same problem so may be it is coming from some code of 960 (just guessing). You can look at that site if you want at http://africaafrica.org/he, the client did not complain so I am still running the site with the problem.

Hi,

I was playing around with it, and I found the location of the problem at least. it is not in omega theme it is coming from the file system.base.css from line 229 from the css code:

 .element-invisible {
  position: absolute !important;
}

But how come this code is affecting only the omega theme?

The #skip-link element is missing some styling that otherwise let's this piece fly out off screen and induce a horizontal scrollbar.

The patch includes styling adapted from Bartik.

Hi Jesse,
It seems to be working fine. Thanks,

Perry, please don't set an issue to closed (fixed) when he patch is there. I nearly missed it that way! When you can confirm that a patch works please set the status to RTBC ("reviewed and tested by the community"). Thanks!
