PowerApps Canvas App Suddenly Adding Scrollbars

This just started happening like 15 min ago and I didn’t make any major changes to my app.

 

When I open the canvas app in any browser this occurs. Here’s how it normally opened:

- I click the link to open the app

- A new tab opens with the app

- At the top of the app, what I’m calling a navbar loads in.  It’s initially purple

- Then the navbar at the top turns white with the icons on the right side of the screen appearing (i.e. fit to screen, download, settings, etc)

 

Here’s where the issue occurs. When the white navbar at the top loads in, it adds a vertical and horizontal scroll bar to the browser window. The scroll bars disappear if I click on my username icon in the top right of the screen within the white navbar. They aren’t necessary, the app isn’t larger than the space, and it’s clearly a bug because they disappear when I click on my username icon. 

This happens in every browser I use. It’s just a regulars sized canvas app using the default 16:9 layout. 

Can someone help me out? I am so confused what’s going on.

 

Edit: I’m seeing it on all of my canvas apps, so it’s a system wide problem not specific to the app pictured above. Anyone have an idea of what may cause that?

Hello Everyone,

 

The issue has been fixed, the change was applied from Office header side, and the scrollbars should no longer appear in the canvas apps. I have verified it from my side as well, all the apps are now appearing without scrollbars.

 

Thanks,

You can disable the white bar at the top by adding this to the end of the app play URL:

&hidenavbar=true

I’ve asked folks if that’s ok, but many like using the resize to fit feature since they can resize their window accordingly. Is it possible to add a resize button within the app itself and then hide the navbar?

@PowerAppsHori 

No, that’s not possible.  But you can make a responsive app that fits to the window size by changing the display settings

Struggling with the same issue here... all my apps have got extra scrollbars since yesterday / today morning. Yesterday around noon everything was fine, now it seems to be some extra space added on the right side to every canvas app. 

 

Anyone struggling with the same issue ?

Is there some way to get Microsoft’s attention on this? They clearly made some sort of change yesterday that broke the canvas app pages.

I have exactly the same error as you 30 minutes ago. clearly it is a bug of Microsoft. Scrolling is also generated when editing the canvas.

We are several users with the same problem. In my opinion, I don´t think it is a Bug of the app maybe some change made by Microsoft

That's what I said.  Report it as a bug of Power Apps to Microsoft.
