Version 3.0.0 on Nextcloud 28 prevents the file listing from loading completely. Lazy loading while/after scrolling broken

[ernolf]

If the README.md app is activated and a long file/folder list is displayed (in files list view), the entire file list will not be loaded. The folders and files that are outside of the focus are no longer loaded "lazy" as usual.

This should not happen, but ...the new dynamic height of the filetable is a nightmare to handle ...
I've had tiple checked that ... but I certainly miss a case.

Can you provide more precises informations and a screenshot when it happen ?

[ernolf]

This is the behaviour without README.md activated:

Files---nextcloud-on-global-social-net_withoutREADMEMD.mp4

While this is the behaviour with README.md activated:

Files---nextcloud-on-global-social-net_withREADMEMD.mp4

Only the first visible and cached files are loaded, the virtual file list as basicaly handled here: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/blob/master/apps/files/src/components/VirtualList.vue
does not work.

Yes. I know. I had my rendezvous with this feature by tinkering around with the UI
https://help.nextcloud.com/t/custom-css-to-enable-ultra-compact-list-view-in-files-nextcloud-27-and-28/174327/11?u=ernolf

My due respect for what you have reached so far 👍

yes I have also reach the virtual Listview definition and the infamous calculated content height,
which is exactly what css is supposed to do automatically. :/

I'll check in detail your last link and try to apply your solution. 👍

Also affects grid view if there is enough item.
Using the browser zoom out function allow to view more files so probably linked to height detection...

[mamatt]

@jkraffthha good point ! To be totally honest, I never use the grid view so I miss to check this kind of view !
For now I haven't found yet a proper way to solve this issue.

One solution could be to also dynamicly comput the top position of the footer, but from my point of view this is a totaly ugly solution !

[jkraffthha]

I'm also wondering how and why it affects folders that don't contains any .md files. I would have thought that those wouldn't be affected in any way by the app.

You can see more of the listing, if you zoom in and out with command + or command - (STRG or CTRL on Windows). Same error with Chrome or Safari or other browsers.

I confirm the bug with Nextcloud 29.0.3

@connor-lucas found out it comes from CSS -> nextcloud/server#46470 (comment)

I can also confirm this bug with NC 28.07

I'm out of office until august 12.

I'll dig more deeply when I'll be back.

I've found the problems for this one, the bug won't affect folder without footermd.
however I'll still working on the main problem aka the infamous lazy loading filetable !
