GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 122211
The setup dialog box is too big to fit the screen.
Last modified: 2003-12-23 08:54:03 UTC
When I installed the Gimp 1.3 fine, but when first running it, the setup screen was cut off at the bottom of the screen. I could not use any means to move the screen to acess the NEXT buttons at the bottom of the screen, nor could I make the window any smaller. My monitor resolution is at 1024x768, and my monitor is 15" Monitor. Great job guys, The new gimp look works great and works incredably smoothly and FAST!!!). I hope you release a stable version soon!
The screen is supposed to fit on 800x600 and last time I checked it did.
Could you please move away ~/.gimp-1.3 temporarily and create a screenshot of the user installation dialog? We might be able to guess the problem from that.
Created attachment 19911 [details] Screenshot provided by Fabio (mailed to be due to problems)
Please tell us some more things: What locale do you use (Output of the "locale"-command)? And what is that message in the terminal where you probably started the Gimp (behind the installation dialog)?
Hi, The message I get (underneath the Gimp screenshot reads in portuguese: "Gimp-Config-Message: Falha na abertura do arquivo: '/home/rsff/.gimp-1.3/gimprc': Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado" Which translates roughly to: "Gimp-Config-Message: Failed to open file: '/home/rsff/.gimp-1.3/gimprc': File or directory not found." My locale: +++++++++++++++++++++++ bash-2.05a$ locale LANG=pt_BR LC_CTYPE="pt_BR" LC_NUMERIC="pt_BR" LC_TIME="pt_BR" LC_COLLATE="pt_BR" LC_MONETARY="pt_BR" LC_MESSAGES="pt_BR" LC_PAPER="pt_BR" LC_NAME="pt_BR" LC_ADDRESS="pt_BR" LC_TELEPHONE="pt_BR" LC_MEASUREMENT="pt_BR" LC_IDENTIFICATION="pt_BR" LC_ALL=

We've lately added a couple of directories to the ~/.gimprc directory. These show up in the user installation dialog and extend it vertically. Looks we will have to revisit the user installation before 2.0.
Changing milestone to 2.0 - this will not need to be addressed before pre-releases. Dave.
I've added a scrolled window in the offending page. I think this bug should be closed now.
Agreed. Dave.
