[](/sp) causing horizontal scroll bars in Chrome if a different emote comes after it on the same line

This happens with or without the sub's CSS enabled.

Also, a good bit of testing shows that this happens on any subreddit. The trigger is having and any emote on the same line but must come first.

Thanks for posting this here too.

I can not seem to replicate this. Tested in Safari 11.0, Firefox Nightly 58.0a1 (2017-10-05) (64-bit), Chrome 63.0.3219.0 (Official Build) canary (64-bit), and Opera 47.0. Can you try updating BPM and Chrome and report back? Also maybe try logging out and see if that makes a difference.

In Chromium: Logged out and disabled every extension except BPM, still see the bars

In a fresh thing of Chrome (Version 61.0.3163.100 (same version number as Chromium)), still see the scroll bar. A different Chrome user is reporting the same thing. Try replicating the bug in the stable build of Chrome/Chromium instead of the canary build?

Also, a good bit more testing shows that this happens on any subreddit. The trigger is having [](/sp) and any emote on the same line but [](/sp) must come first.

E: In chrome I noticed that "Overlay Scrollbars" in chrome://flags/ was enabled by default.

Some more narrowing down, but if there is text between the [](/sp) and the second emote, then the scrollbar will not appear.

eg [](/sp) [](/pp) will cause the scrollbar but [](/sp) words [](/pp) will not.

I wonder if it's platform specific for some bizarre reason? Are you on macOS, a Linux distro, or Windows?

Maybe that's it? If you can, try testing on another operating system and see if it persists. macOS does not have this issue.
