After using CP, the XO home palette is incorrectly scrolled (blank lines + missing item)

[garycmartin]

Testing an XO running joyride 2631, after using the CP (you just have to open and close it again), and then speed opening (right click) the XO home palette, the palette content is incorrectly vertically scrolled down so that there is some blank space at the top and a blank area at the bottom where 'Register' should go. Moving the cursor to the bottom blank causes the palette content to scroll-up showing the missing item.

Just re-tested with the Soas3.img for XOs and the issue with the home palette is still there. To reproduce, open the CP, close the CP, right click on the home view XO to reveal the palette. It's content will display incorrectly scrolled and missing the bottom 'Register' item.

Screen shot of bad palette content scroll incase it helps

I'm still seeing the home palette menu incorrectly scrolled partially out of view from time to time with latest jhbuild build.

I see this often, no idea how to fix.

+1 to Priority, since some time I see empty palette, so there is no chances to scroll items back.

patch just cancels menu(deselect current item) on hiding,
btw looks like self.menu.set_active(False)(see the patch) looks redundant but I left it, just in case.

Nice! Solves the case for me perfectly and sounds like a good solution.
