Title:
Input field height changes slightly when entering in st password
fields.
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Bionic:
Fix Released
Bug description:
It appears there is the font/height rendering issue in multiple
places. With the textentry "jumping" in height slightly upon entering
anything.
I have observed this on the login screen password entry screen,
lockscreen entry, and the gnome pin entry for my ssh/gpg smartcard.
It almost feels as if the "dots" of the hidden password are either of
larger font size and/or bold, whilst an empty text field and/or
unfocused text field font is either smaller and or regular (non-bold).
Resulting in a rendering / layout jiggles.
[ Impact ]
Password input field increase the vertical size as soon as the user
types something
[ Test case ]
1. Run:
pkexec true
2. Start typing something
3. The input field should not resize vertically
This works only in case the big-font a11y option is not enabled
[ Regression potential ]
Input Text entries might be slightly taller than they were
