Double scrollbar bug in new browser extension UI

FaviFake, thanks for posting that. Does your recommendation fix this issue as well? This drives me nuts (dual scroll bars and bottom toolbar hidden until you scroll to it, after which then the top toolbar is hidden).

Nope, that looks like a UX nightmare to use. Luckily, I don’t have that issue on my end!

That’s exactly what I ran into as well. Two different browsers, two different operating systems, four different computers. I very consistently needed to scroll all the way to the bottom of my 400+ vault items before the stupid bottom row of buttons would come into view. I never run into that with the old version of the extension, this is a new thing.

@bwuser10000 What you are describing is a bug, so I moved it out of the thread for feedback on the new design (it is not a new design feature). This is what it is supposed to look like (note the single scrollbar, and the fixed position of the bottom navigation icons):

 

You can report this bug as a “New Issue” on GitHub, or you can provide additional information here to see if we can determine what specific conditions trigger this bug.

Some possible contributing factors may be:

  • Customized display zoom settings in the operating system.
  • Customized font size settings in the operating system.
  • Unusual display sizes or orientations (e.g., portrait-mode displays).
  • Browsers that use fingerprinting resistance tactics.

The more information you are able to share about your setup, the better.

Thanks.

Browser (Brave) is zoomed to 110%, large font.

Changing to 100% zoom and regular font fixed the issue though I need a larger font to be able to see without squinting (and yes I have 20/20 corrected vision).

I changed the font back to Large and the BW dropdown still shows the bottom toolbar, so I am good with that.

Thanks for the guidance!

That right there seems like the bug that needs reporting. If you are able to reproduce it, I suggest sending this entre conversation to [email protected], along with the OS, browser and extension versions where you can reproduce it.

I tried setting my vault 2024.12.2, chrome 131, on windows 11 to zoom level 125% and was not able to reproduce it. The Bitwarden text and window frame stayed the original size.

From the new update:

  1. Bug: the chrome popup window main actions are below a scrollbar. Since we now see a list of all the passwords in that window (meh), its a scrollbar in a scrollbar.

Use case: my main use for this app is a “Password Manager”
Rather than letting chrome (and the world) know my passwords, or use a single bad password, this allows me to use strong passwords, decently encrypted in a data store, and can auto-fill quicker than copy/pasting from my own encrypted source.

The new interface is as slow as copy/paste from my crypted text file, and more confusing. Yes, its not complicated, it’s just not optimal. Passwords should take 1s to fill and move on, 5s to create. Function over form.

Suggestion: CTRL+SHIFT+Y actually auto fills the password. Simple as that.
optionally CTRL+SHIFT+Y + ENTER (presses the FILL button on the popup)
It’s too easy.

Thanks for the great work!

@Vagabond Welcome to the forum!

I merged your post into an existing thread. FYI your topic is a bug report, not a feature request, with the possible exception of the following comment:

FYI, there already is an autofill keyboard shortcut, but it is Ctrl+Shift+L.

If you wish for Bitwarden to address bug, please report it as a “New Issue” on GitHub.

Fortunately, in this case, there is already a fix on the way (see follow-up comment below).

There is now a pull request that will fix this bug:

 

In the meantime, you can use the work-arounds described above:
