Help viewer no horizontal scroll if window made narrower than image

[Elaine Meng]

For example, start ChimeraX, menu: Help... User Guide, choose (under Tools) Volume Viewer, make window narrower than image.

However, I do see a horizontal scroll for Help... Quick Start Guide where the initial window is already narrower than the table of images.

On the other hand, to my surprise, other browsers don't show a horizontal scroll in this situation either. Tried Safari, Chrome, Firefox.

Out of our control :-). You could change the markup so the width of the image is 90% instead of 800px. On my system, when the window gets narrower, the image is scaled smaller. But, weirdly, when the window gets wider, it image stop getting bigger when it reaches 800 pixels.

Found the real bug. If you remove the class="clRight" on the table with the image in it, then the horizontal scroll bar appears. So it's something with your css that's triggering this behavior.

Experiments suggest that browsers don’t bother showing a horizontal scroll with any float:right specification for an image or table.  However, all the CSS documentation I’ve found says these are valid specifications, and they do work in general (image or table really does float right), so I choose to view this as a limitation of the browsers.  :-)  I don’t want to remove the float: right because I want the images/tables to float right, so I guess I’ll live with the lack of horizontal scroll when the window is narrower than the image or table.
