Please help me.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

[Matteo-Barberis]

Here is a minimal reproducible example:

The code simply opens and closes an inventory.

PROBLEM 1:

If the inventory_panel is set to visible = 0, like in the example, when the inventory is then visible (as a result of pressing the inventory button), it's not scrollable. The scrollbar doesn't appear (however it should).

PROBLEM 2:

If the inventory_panel is NOT set to visible = 0, but we are simply not defining the visible property, then the inventory will have the scrollbar, but when the panel is set to invisible again, the scrollbar will still be visible.

Is this a bug? Am i doing something wrong? Could anyone help?
