Accordian widget broken after latest update?

Report · Jun 02, 2015

So I'm hoping someone can help me fix this, or knows of a workaround for what appears to be a glitch in the According Interaction. (Interaction/Learning Interactions). At first I thought maybe it had something to do with the way I was sizing or styling it, so I tried several stock themes and did not change a single thing. I did not even resize it.

The text and buttons hang off the bottom edge, until the page is resized. The series of images below show this effect, and you will notice it fixes itself when I switch between views. This "self correction" happens when fully published (resizing the browser window), or just previewed, (switching views).

First view at 1024, notice the page and buttons over hangs off the lower edge.

Second view: All I do is switch the window (preview) or resize the window a little smaller (full publish)

Now the buttons do not overhang off the bottom edge and it looks decent when I switch back to the original view:

I would really like to use this interaction if possible. Does anyone know why this is happening and/or how to fix it?

(I even attempted to place a smart shape on top of the widget (like a footer bar) in order to hide the "ugly", but no matter how the orders are arranged, the interaction always appears on top. Is this another bug as well? Can this be fixed too? (I'm thinking a z-order fix perhaps)

P.S. It looks even worse if don't select "Scale Text": (but it does still correct itself when switching views.)

I appreciate any help I can get on this. Thank you!

If you are only testing this on your local computer and evaluating the results from the Previews, then the FIRST thing you need to do is publish out to responsive HTML5, upload to a web server and test on actual devices. Don't take for granted that the previews are giving you a perfect representation of what this will look like. Test on the ACTUAL platform, otherwise you could be stressing out over nothing.

Thanks Rod! The "self correction" happens when fully published (resizing the browser window), or just previewed, (switching views). Also, I get tons of errors in Chrome on the slide with the widget. I figured it's probably something to do with the latest update, as it's never done that before. Hoping for a workaround, or fix of some sort. Any ideas?

Report the issue to Adobe via the Bug/Enhancement form on the Forum. If they've broken something with the update, they rely on end users to tell them. There's no way they can test on every platform before sending out stuff nowadays.
