[Bug 1374778] Re: Sometimes clicking on an login entry doesn't scroll to it

 

** Description changed:

- When using greeter-show-manual-login=true some entries of the loginscreen are not clickable.
- A concrete example: the loginscreen items are:
- - User 1
- - User 2
- - Login (arbitrary Username can be typed) 
- - Guest Session
+ [Impact]
+ Sometimes clicking on a login entry doesn't scroll to it.
  
- When "User 2" is the active item I can click at every other item. When I click at "Guest Session", "Guest Session" will be the active item. Now a click at "Login" is without any effect ("User 1" and "User 2" are still clickable).
- With other computers and different users sometimes more then one item isn't clickable. Sometimes no other item can be selected with the mouse, I have to use the keyboard!
+ [Test case]
+ 1. Ensure there are at least six entries on the login screen (e.g. six users)
+ 2. Go to the login screen
+ 3. Scroll to the bottom entry
+ 4. Click on the entry above the selected one
+ 5. Repeat step 4 until you reach the top
  
- I can reproduce this problem with 4 different desktop computers and 2
- different notebooks. I noticed this problem with Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10,
- 13.04, 13.10 and 14.04. Same problem with and without LDAP-connection.
+ Expected result:
+ You are able to select each item until you reach the top
+ 
+ Observed result:
+ You are only able to select the first two times. Then clicking has no effect.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Risk of breaking other layout / input behaviour. Regression tests continue to pass and manual testing has not indicated any side effects.

** Summary changed:

- Sometimes clicking on an login entry doesn't scroll to it
+ Sometimes clicking on a login entry doesn't scroll to it
