Is there a known bug with an epic's child tickets always displaying the horizontal scroll bar?

All of a sudden, I am seeing an epic's child tickets always displaying the horizontal scroll bar. This is happening even when I am able to see all of the columns and data. It is displaying the horizontal scroll bar as if there is more to see on the right, but there is nothing there. I am not able to get rid of it by zooming out/in.

Can confirm, any view - either pop-up or full screen always shows scrollbars.
It's really annoying and there appears to be no way of getting rid of those, expect applying custom CSS on a div wrapped around the table: style="overflow-x: hidden;"

If you use Stylus or a similar CSS inject plugin, you can use this code to fix this:

 

div[data-ssr-placeholder-replace="issue-content-items"] div[data-vc="issue-table-main-container"] div[data-testid="native-issue-table.ui.scroll-container.scroll-container"]
{
overflow-x: hidden !important;
}

Hi @Dan Almeida -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I agree; that appears to be a defect in the new UX. 

The only way I got it to disappear was to grab the handle for the fields separator (to the right of the child issues) and drag it left until the apparent "break point" changed, showing fewer columns / fields.  Changing browser zoom had no impact.

 

Checking the public backlog, I did not find a defect for this one and so I suggest submitting it to Atlassian Support, either from the ? ... "Give Feedback about Jira" form or from here:

Kind regards,
Bill

This happens with every Child work items, not just in Epics, but also in regular Tasks. That horizontal scroll bar is always there no matter what. It also leads to an unnecessary vertical scrollbar, because the horizontal scrollbar covers a part of the last sub-task, requiring to vertically scroll a few pixels to reveal the last sub-task fully.

And I hate it with a passion!
