Operating System

Package

Flatpak

Troubleshooting information

os: GNOME 45 (Flatpak runtime)
prefix: /app
flatpak: true
version: 0.5.0 (production)
gtk: 4.12.3 (4.12.1)
libadwaita: 1.4.0 (1.4.0)
libsoup: 3.4.3 (3.4.3)
libgtksourceview: 5.10.0 (5.10.0)

Additional Context

After search results are shown, maximizing the window (super + up) still shows cropped content -- even for the search fields and menus (see screenshot). Even if you manually resize the window, it never seems to be enough, result cards are always cropped, even though there is no content demanding more horizontal space.

For debugging reference, with the "fedora" search in particular, this seems to be an issue with the user "deadsoul@fosstodon.org", whose status widget requests a large width and causes all other results aligned with it to expand as well. If you search for this user specifically, the same thing happens, but it behaves as expected if you search for "fedora project".

This actually seems to be an issue beyond just the search results page, as you get the same wrong behavior in the profile page if you open this user's profile.

Personally, my only guess as to what could be causing this is the user's banner picture, which has a vertical aspect ratio, but this is purely a shot in the dark, and I don't know if that could impact the search results page.

I know what the cause of the issue is but there's nothing I can do at the moment. It depends on the ListBox => ListView migration because "fixing" it hurts performance significantly.

It has to do with LabelWithWidgets + the lines+ellipsize hack
