Issue descriptionAffected Version: 2.14.2-2868-gce3c6ce9fc What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Use Chrome (60.0.3112.113) or Chromium (60.0.3112.101) on some Linux Systems (arch linux in my case) and visit: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/third_party/coreboot/+/454545 2. Open/unfold a longer message in the messages section (doesn't happen for really short ones like "added to CC") What is the expected output? A normal formatted and readable message. What do you see instead? A message where there's a newline after every character. Like: P a t c h S e t 1 Please provide any additional information below. A colleague of mine was not able to reproduce this on a Ubuntu 16.04 with Chromium. However, if I use the chrome debugger and disable "max-width" in the CSS block below, that fixes the issue in the UI: ====== cut ====== .gr-formatted-text-1 p.gr-formatted-text, .gr-formatted-text-1 ul.gr-formatted-text, .gr-formatted-text-1 blockquote.gr-formatted-text { max-width: 80ch; } ====== cut ======

This looks like a chromium bug.

Update: It doesn't happen on the Chromium Gerrit anymore. Looks like they've updated the gerrit theme and the font-family now includes "Roboto" which somehow fixed the behavior. It still happens on a default gerrit 2.14.4 installation with default PolyGerrit UI. Found out that it uses the emojione-color-font for rendering emojis. (I assume as a replacement for the non-free 'Segoe UI Emoji' referenced in the font-family). On my system I had the arch AUR package emojione-color-font-1.3-1 installed (which installs https://github.com/eosrei/emojione-color-font/releases/download/v1.3/EmojiOneColor-SVGinOT-Linux-1.3.tar.gz). As soon as I removed it and restarted chrome, gerrit was rendering normal again. Not sure if this is a bug in the font or something is wrong inside chrome/blink with the font width calculation of some fonts. I'm assuming blink because it also happens with Vivaldi 1.12.955.38 (Stable channel) (64-bit) but not with Firefox.

Issue moved from a project with a different set of status labels. "New" is not a supported status in /p/chromium, so these ended up in a black-hole. |
