ListBox horizontal scrollbar does not go away

wxPython Users
1

Hi,

I’m on a Linux XFCE machine with wxPython 3.0.2.0 installed.

I have an wx.ListBox widget with some items. When i add a new item that is long
the horizontal scrollbar appears, if i remove the item the horizontal scrollbar is still there.
To reproduce:

  1. run test.py
  2. click “button” to add the long item (the horizontal scrollbar should appear)
  3. click “button” again to remove it (the horizontal scrollbar is still there)
    Is there a way to remove the scrollbar?
    NOTES

test.py (1.38 KB)

Could this issue be because of the interaction between GTK and XFCE? It appears to work with KDE ( again that is the interaction between GTK and KDE). Have you tried other managers? Other distro’s?

I see it on GNOME 3 also so it's not just XFCE.

I guess the only thing to do is to refresh the layout in the code that removes the expanded text (node). I don’t have anything very small that I can play with but I can say it works for me on KDE (I’m using openSUSE leap). Maybe you can post something small we can take a look at to determine the real cause.

I have tried with Refresh() & Update() but no changes, the scrollbar is still there.
