Description drrobbedford 2003-04-27 20:40:35 UTC 
Pan displays its window larger than my screen size. It is possible to adjust 
the height of the main window in the normal way with the mouse, but not its 
width. I have to drag the whole window to the left to be able to see and use 
the scroll bars on the right. Maximising or not makes no difference. 
 
The Preferences dialog box is also too big for my screen, and can only 
be adjusted in width, not height. This means that the ¨ÖK¨ and ¨Cancel¨ 
buttons are not visible, even if I drag the box as high as I can get it (and 
hide the taskbar), and I have to use keystrokes, and guess when the focus 
is on the ¨OK¨ button. Once again, maximising or not makes no 
difference.  
 
In both cases, I know that the Linux display setup is OK, because: 1. It is a 
standard (800x600) X windows setup, done directly from install, without 
any fiddling with the configuration files. 2. Pan is the only program that 
does this.

From the screenshot above, Pan's main window fits -- barely --in an
800x600 window, even when competing for space with gnome-panel.
So I don't think the main window needs to be addressed.

However, as can be seen from the prefs window screenshot, the
dialog button's aren't even visible in 800x600.  This needs to be fixed.

Looks like the height is coming from the color tab.
Perhaps the quoted text could be pushed into a single
line, with "Quoted Text" on the left and three color
buttons on the right, similar to the to foreground/background
buttons on the score lines...
