[Bug 1383486] [NEW] menu to select zoom doesn't drop down

 

Public bug reported:

To reproduce open a pdf file in evince from pcmanfm or another file
manager. Then move the mouse to the upper right corner of the window
along the top bar. Then try to click on the arrow pointing down to drop
down the menu. The mouse pointer will click but no menu will drop down.
I can still edit the zoom by clickin in this bar but I cannoy select fit
page or fit width like I used to be able to in 14.04. I am using lxde as
my desktop environment with openbox as my window manager.

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Description:	Ubuntu 14.10
Release:	14.10
I expected a menu to be able to choose zoom instead I can only change zoom by typing in the box. 

Work around is to manually set a zoom by typing it in. This could lead
to some accessibility problems for people with low vision if they need
to zoom in on a pdf and don't know the workaround.
