Description Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) 2008-08-20 18:29:05 UTC
Empathy 2.23.6, Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex alpha 3

1. In the Accounts window, click "Add".
2. Choose an account type that has advanced settings, and click "Create".
3. Expand the "Advanced" section.
4. Collapse the "Advancd" section.

What happens:
3. The window enlarges to show the advanced settings.
4. The window remains at its large size, with lots of empty space.

What should happen:
3. The window enlarges to show the advanced settings.
4. The window returns to its original size.

Bug still present in master.
Comment 2 Dimitris Zenios 2009-06-13 23:44:01 UTC
the problem with that bug is how we can get the size we need after the expander collapses so we can resize the window?From what i can see the accounts window does not have default size.Any idea?
Comment 3 Pierre-Luc Beaudoin 2009-06-14 03:12:43 UTC
Right, there is such an expander in the Join Room dialog in Empathy.  The trick is: when you expand the expander, the window get resizeable, when you collaps it, it is set to unresizeable.  This forces Gtk+ to relayout the widgets to their minimal size.
Comment 4 Xavier Claessens 2009-06-14 09:22:03 UTC
Oh, actually that seems a bug of join chatroom dialog, if I manually resize the dialog then expand and collapse, it return to minimal size.
Comment 5 Dimitris Zenios 2009-06-14 10:55:38 UTC
I know that by making the window resizable = true and resizable = false every time we can fix this bug,but is this the best solution we can have?

Nah I did it this way: if I collapse, it is because I don't need to see the list anymore, then the window doesn't need to be so large.  You don't need to expand unexpand to reload the list, it is reloaded when the server or account changes.

With bug #613272 fixed, we don't expand the dialog any more.
