[BUG] Drop down menu continuously flickers

Smomo · October 31, 2015, 12:01pm

this problem occupy when menu is out of screen.

menu will try to offset it’s position in order to display all information but I dont know why it will try to back to original position as well.

So it repeat “fix” position and “back” to position.

This problem will not cause any error, but annoying.

By way, I am Mac 10.10.5 .

I was not able to reproduce this on our Macbook Pro running 10.10.5 as shown here:

Can you identify, from this image, anything I might be doing differently from you?

Can you list some precise repro steps?

Also, can you provide requested information on your system specs?

This is information is needed to identify source of your bug.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Please see image below
If the “Menu’s Length” not out of whole editor window, it is OK.
You can see last element in menu is “Time Limit”.

But if the “Menu’s Length” out of window, then :

Means that if “Time Limit” element cant display, menu will try to change it position.

I’m having this issue: UE4 Mac Bug - Album on Imgur on UE4 4.23 on a MacBook Pro 15" MacOS 10.14.6 (18G95) (Mojave) and that happens on every dropdown menu in editor.

It only happens on Mac monitor (unplugged from an external monitor).
