GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 105536
Impossible to view bottom of 'playing' window
Last modified: 2012-01-31 23:26:24 UTC
Many of the card games in this suite draw a window which extends beyond the area of the physical screen. There is no way to resize it manually that I can see. All other functions on all other areas of the GNOME2 desktop; its panels and tool bars etc, appear to work correctly on our system. FWIW, I am so impressed with GNOME's clean, efficient look that I've dumped KDE entirely. My graphics development partner loves me for that decision. Be proud of what you have done!
I can confirm this (on gnome-games 2.3.3). For example start 'sol' and select a few different games On my 1024 * 768 screen "Chessboard" extends beyond the bottom of the screen. "Bakers Dozen" extends beyond the full width of the screen, giving an unplayable game.
This is still valid in gnome-2.5 and is also mentioned in the TODO file of gnome-games so I'm changing UNCOMFIRMED->NEW.
I'm pretty sure this is already covered by another bug report: games should be resizeable [smaller and larger] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80240 if you agree please close this bug and I'll verify it.
Yes, it's a duplicate but I've never got around to finding the other bug number. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 80240 ***
*** Bug 107846 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This bug is being reassigned to the "general" component so we can close the aisleriot bugzilla component. Apologies for the mass email!
