Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

The file and folder view in nautilus is not correct in nautilus 2.26.2.
If there are only few files or folders present and the view is 150% or
more than the view switches to blank portion on the right where there
are no items present. This happens in compact view. Even in icon view
you find a horizontal (bottom) scrollbar even though it is not needed.


Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Open Nautilus (2.26.2) in compact or icon view
2. Go to a folder where there are few items, (i.e.) not exceeding 2 colums)
3. Now increase the zoom size to 150% or more 


In compact view the view now pans to the right and the beginning of the files  
with long names will not be visible and in the case of short named files the 
files itself will not be visible.
In icon view a scrollbar appears at the bottom and you can scroll to the right 
needlessly in the empty area

The view to start at the beginning (left) at the column and not at the end 
(right) of the column
Also if you would like to rename a file with a short name and choose rename on 
the menu and if you have a file with a very long name in the same column then 
the file will  be visible only after you readjust your settings. E.g. Let one 
file name be 'We can go for a vacation together to the Carribean this winter  
and enjoy the  delights of the carribean and then come back' Let the next one 
be named 'wecango'. Now try renaming 'wecango'. This problem is present at 100% 
view also

The problem is even more in the case of folders having only one column
of items

If possible please regress to nautilus 2.26.1 or 2.26.0 where this
problem is not present for jaunty
