Bootstrap: Clicking scrollbar in <select multiple> with overflowed options will select nearby <option> in Chrome

Created on 27 Apr 2016  路  10Comments  路  Source: twbs/bootstrap

I use chrome v50.0.2661.87 m.

While option text overflowed, user could select option every single clicking on scrollbar.

Does anyone could reproduce this issue?

Here is the sample code:
https://jsfiddle.net/umt87ojo/1/

And finally I found if:

select > option {
  overflow-x:hidden;
}

and problem solved!!!!

Clarification: This only happens with <select class="form-control" multiple>.

Confirmed in Chrome; all other browsers seem to work fine (I didn't check Opera). Edit: I tested in Windows 7

Here is a JSFiddle demonstrating the suggested change: https://jsfiddle.net/a3rkua5p/. I tested this in all browsers (except Opera) and didn't notice any adverse effects. The change does not affect <select> without the multiple attribute.

:+1: for implementing this. Perhaps we should also report this to Chrome as this behavior is inconsistent with other browsers.

On second thought, perhaps this is within the scope of normalize.css.

Confirmed in OS X Chrome. Doesn't happen with in a fiddle with only Normalize.css loaded, so something in Bootstrap must be triggering this. Definitely seems like Chrome itself has a bug though.
@RyanZim Did you test in Chrome on Windows or Linux by any chance?

Confirmed in the latest Chrome on Windows.
The effect seems to be triggered by the border-radius from the .form-control class.

Confirmed that removing the border-radius restores sane behavior.
I'll file a Chrome bug tomorrow.

@cvrebert I did my cross-browser testing on Windows 7. I'll try to do some testing in Linux later today.

On Linux (Lubuntu), I cannot reproduce with chrome 48.0.2564.116. My Linux box is 32-bit so I can't test with later releases of Chrome. :disappointed:

Going to assume this is cross-platform since both Windows and OS X are affected.

Known Chrome bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=597642

Has been "WontFix"ed because it apparently cannot be reproduced anymore.
