      Problem

      Using Chrome 50, Confluence editor will render half its height, causing UI usability problems, see the screenshot:

      Normally, the button bar would appear at the bottom of the browser, and the editor would take the full height. It works fine in Chrome 49 stable release and other browsers.

      Steps to reproduce
      1. Install Chrome 50.x
      2. Open Confluence and edit a page
      Cause

      The affected version of Chrome introduced the following bug that is related to the issue: display: table-row; doesn't work with height: 100%; .

      Workaround

      Apply the following stylesheet to Confluence Admin > Custom HTML > At end of the HEAD

      <style type="text/css">
      #content.edit
      { display: table-cell; }
      </style>
      

      Note: If the workaround appears to revert after a restart, but the custom HTML is still present, verify that there are no space level customizations in the affected area.

      Resolution

      Upgrade to a release that contains the fix (Confluence 5.9.7 or higher).

            [CONFCLOUD-41035] Editor shows at half height when using Chrome 50+

            Followup ... we should probably add Confluence 5.5 to the "Affected Versions" for this ticket, although the Workaround does not seem to work.

            Nevertheless, the solution in our case was suggested by Stephen Belknap's comment above. (Thank you Stephen!)

            When we upgraded Chromium from 50.0.2661.75 to a later build, 50.0.2661.102, this resolved the problem.

            The Workaround seemed to have no effect for us ... we are still seeing the problem.

            We are still on Confluence 5.5 ... which I don't see listed under the "Versions Affected" on this ticket.

            Is it possible that the Workaround instructions would be different for Confluence 5.5?

            Hi vernice.recomite,
            I think it still work except that your message modify style or structure of the editor.
            Please tell me if it doesn't.

            Regards,
            Nam

            Hi, Nam.

            The workaround applied worked. However, we recently added a banner message for Confluence users and we changed the contents of "At end of the HEAD", so the workaround was rolled back.

            Will this still work with the message plus the workaround both in the "At end of the HEAD"?

            Thanks,
            Bam

            @TedKim, when you say 'solution from Atlassian to upgrade", please state the version.

            Update: Never mind ... I see it is in the Resolution above (5.9.7).

            I have also encountered this symptom, so got received a solution from Atlassian to upgrade confluence and workaround as commented in above.

            But,
            it happened in Chrome 50.0.2661.78m, but not happened in now 50.0.2661.94m........

            Maybe fixed automatically by updated....

            I would check if your Theme is part of the issue. We are running Confluence 5.8.10 & RefinedTheme 5.0.3 and I've removed the CSS tweaks above, so far so good with just the Chrome 50.0.2661.87 m release.

            Hi in my confluence 5.8.10 the problem happens not in edit mode, after login there is a blank space and we have to scroll down to see part of the page, running Version 50.0.2661.87. Is this related to this issues? or should I open a new one?

            thanks!
