[Gateway] "Shrinking" Bag slot issue

So, this one is a weird one, which is probably best explained in the attached screen shot, but here's a precursor.

Even after having dumped my cache, cookies, and history and reloaded Gateway (as I've started doing after every patch now when I encounter an issue) I'm getting this strange happening that doesn't always fix itself easily.

When I sell an item from my bag, some of my slots disappear all the way up to the slot in which the item has exited my inventory because it's been sold. Pressing the sorting button often seems to fix it, buuuut not always. I'm not sure if this is related to the lag issue I've been hearing about today or not.

Below, my greater bag of holding is demonstrating this issue.

    That might shed some light on this person's issue as well
    http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?589201-Adventurer-s-Satchel-missing-slots-on-Gateway

    What it sounds like is normal bags on Gateway are behaving like an overflow bag in the game. Gateway hasn't supported an overflow bag, so if you got more stuff playing SCA than you had space for, you'd have to wait and deal with it in-game.

    As you move things out of your overflow bag, it drops spaces off the end, but empty spaces between items will remain as long as you don't remove the bracketing items. You can't actually put anything into those blank overflow spaces though; they're just placeholders.

    Close, but it'll also eat up slots where there is definitely inventory (when the slots are returned, inventory is still there, luckily)

    Example, again with the greater bag of holding:

    And thanks for the link, I didnt even see that other topic

    I just had a similar experience while opening leadership chests via Gateway. Everytime I opened the last chest in a stack, the interface would freeze, then chop off the visible bag slots starting from the slot in which the chest was located. This occurred on five different characters, each with two or three stacks of different leadership crates. The results are exactly as the screenshots above.

    Changing to another character and back fixed the visual glitch for me. I am not confident that I received the contents from the last-opened chests; neither have I reason to doubt that I did.

    Given that the "eaten" bag slots still have the items in it after this weird glitch is "refreshed away" or what have you, I think you probably did. Either way, glad but not glad to know I'm not the only one suffering this after the patch.

    Prior to the patch NW.10.20140113a.4, this was not an issue (I probably should have included that tidbit in my opening post)

    I've seen this as well. Sold some lockboxes and the row they were on vanished. They were located on the bottom row of the bag at the far left. When I refreshed, the slots appeared again with the slot where the lockboxes were being empty.

    I can confirm this issue as well. To me, This usually happens right after opening leadership chests or selling items. It started to occur since the patch yesterday.

    This happens to me as well. If you click sort the missing slots come back. Annoying but at least there's a temporary workaround

    I'm seeing this as well.

    It doesn't appear to be 'eating' slots, per say, it just seems to be failing to display the slots properly. Switching between characters seems to help it redraw the slots correctly.

    Definitely a new 'feature' from the last patch though.

    Just refreshing the page also made the bag slots visible again.

    I'm getting the same issue. I found that if I switch to a different character and then go back to that one, the items and slots are back again. Though sometimes if I try to sell something, I get a box saying, "Cannot sell". Weird glitch, pain in the rear. Hope it gets fixed soon as I spend more time in gateway than I do in game.

    I have this issue as well. It's extremely annoying. As stated in above posts, it happened after the CTA update.

    Any word as to when this issue will get at least a look see? It's getting so irritating that I'm starting to avoid gateway and professions and that's been my favorite aspect of the game.

    i saw this error and attempted to clear the cache as a way to correct it and no joy. the current work around is to refresh the page and the bag slots return. hopefully this will get some attention soon.

    Appears to be fixed as of patch NW.10.20140128a.4 on February 6th, 2013.

    Can anyone else help confirm this, please? I currently only have items to sell which didn't trigger the bug, so I dont know if opening chests will trigger it still or not.
