I’m using Firefox and the new editor. When the panel on right-hand size of the editor reaches the bottom of the screen, both the “Search” dropdown and the page itself have scrollbars. This makes it very clunky to get to the bottom of the list.

Also weird that the “Search” scrollbar elevator starts off very tall, but when you touch it to start scrolling, it shrinks. Sometimes more than once.

Between the dueling scrollbars and the contracting elevator, it’s very annoying to navigate lists at the bottom of the page.

As a final insult, the floating “Help” button just gets in the way. (Simple solution for that problem may be to move the button the the bottom left corner of the editor,)

This may be related to the posts below, although I am able to get to the bottom of the list, just not easily.

Hi there @bridgman,

Thank you so much for this valuable feedback, this is how we build and grow Zapier! I've submitted it to our internal database, which our product teams use when looking to make improvements and changes to Zapier. 

Hopefully, this helps.


Hey there!

It sounds like you're running into some issues with scrollbars and navigation in Firefox while using the new Visual Editor. These kinds of problems can be frustrating, but there are a few things we can check to help fix them.

Possible Causes:

  1. Browser Compatibility:
    Sometimes, certain features in newer visual editors may not be fully compatible with all browsers. Firefox could be rendering the page differently compared to other browsers like Chrome or Edge, leading to issues with scrollbars or navigation.

  2. Outdated Browser Version:
    If you're using an older version of Firefox, it may not be fully optimized for newer web technologies. This can cause UI elements like scrollbars or buttons to behave unexpectedly.

  3. Extensions or Add-ons:
    Some browser extensions can interfere with how pages are displayed, especially if they modify the appearance or functionality of web pages. If you have extensions like ad blockers or custom themes, they might be causing the issue.

  4. CSS or JavaScript Conflicts:
    The problem could be related to how the Visual Editor uses CSS (for styling) or JavaScript (for navigation). Sometimes, a conflict between the editor's code and the browser’s settings might lead to strange behavior with scrollbars or navigation menus.

Troubleshooting Steps:

  1. Update Firefox:
    Make sure your Firefox browser is up to date. Developers often release patches that fix bugs related to rendering issues, so updating the browser might help resolve the problem.

  2. Disable Extensions:
    Try disabling all extensions temporarily and see if that resolves the issue. If the problem goes away, turn the extensions back on one by one to identify which one is causing the problem.

  3. Clear Cache and Cookies:
    Sometimes, old cache or cookies can cause display issues. Go to Firefox’s settings and clear the cache and cookies, then restart the browser to see if the issue is fixed.

  4. Check for CSS/JS Conflicts:
    If you have access to the code or settings of the Visual Editor, check for any conflicts between the editor’s CSS/JS and Firefox. You can also test the page in Firefox’s Developer Tools to check for any errors in the console.

  5. Try in Safe Mode:
    Firefox has a "Safe Mode" option where it runs without any add-ons or custom settings. You can try running Firefox in Safe Mode to see if the problem still occurs.

Just like in app development (such as with Duolingo), visual or navigation issues can sometimes arise, especially when modifying user interfaces or adding new features. For example, users of the duolingo mod ipa may encounter problems with the app's design or functionality after making modifications. In those cases, developers often resolve these issues by adjusting the app’s code, similar to how you might need to tweak CSS or JavaScript to fix browser display problems.

I hope these steps help! Let me know if you're still having trouble, and we can dig deeper into it.
