[Rt-devel] Bug in RT 3.8.0 display, when using fixed pitch font

OK, so this is a spam ticket, but it illustrates a problem with the  
display of text/plain comments when the fixed pitch font option is  
switched on.  Without that option, the transaction displays fine, with  
the text being wrapped where code sees fit.  But with fixed pitch no  
wrapping is performed; that in itself is not a problem, it's what I'd  
expect, but the scrollbar on the widget is set to the wrong size, and  
runs off beyond the right edge of the window.  I have a screenshot of  
this which I will email to anyone who's interested, but I won't  
clutter your inboxes with it now.

I also noted that the fixed pitch font used is using double line  
spacing, which probably isn't right.  This was observed using both  
Firefox 3 and Safari on a Mac, and IE 7 on Windows, so it seems to be  
a browser-independent problem.

Regards,

Tim
