I see this too with Nautilus 3.6.3 in Saucy. I can reliably reproduce this bug like this:
1. Start Nautilus. 2. Go to the /etc folder in list view. On a typical machine this directory will have a few hundred files. 3. Make sure you're displaying the default set of columns (Name, Size, Type, Modified). 4. Now move the window, or resize it, or right click on any file to open a context menu. The columns will jump around. I originally filed this upstream at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698970, but then I realized I could reproduce this only in Ambiance, not Adwaita. So I believe this problem is theme-related. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #698970 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698970 ** Also affects: ubuntu-themes (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018718 Title: columns width redrawn by multiple events To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1018718/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
