Description Neil Williams 2006-04-19 11:04:50 UTC
SVN 1.9.5, r13796.

To reproduce: 
Actions->Scheduled Transactions->Scheduled Transaction Editor->New

The control buttons for the dialogue are invisible below the edge of the screen and I can only close the window using the window manager X control that causes a cancel.
Comment 1 Josh Sled 2006-04-19 12:04:32 UTC
At what resolution?

I'd believe it at 800x600, but I know this is not true at 1024x768.  I don't think we care about 800x600 anymore.
Comment 2 Neil Williams 2006-04-19 12:41:49 UTC
My TFT panel only supports 1024 x 768.

Maybe it's a KDE thing - I'll test in Gnome later.

Comment 3 Neil Williams 2006-04-19 16:04:54 UTC
OK. Tested in Gnome and although the buttons are *just about visible*, the dialogue blocks access to the bottom panel that allows switching to another program or workspace. The bottom margin of the dialogue is still off the bottom of the screen.

I re-viewed the recording I happened to make last night of the SX editor on a 1024x768 screen, and there's plenty of room [see about mid-way through http://asynchronous.org/tmp/part5.html].  Can you provide a screenshot?
Comment 5 Neil Williams 2006-04-19 16:23:02 UTC
I can't view your screenshot at that URL - it appears to be Flash/plugin based.

This is mine:

might be nice to re-design/-layout the SX editor, but it's not critical.

I'm using Ubuntu with default settngs. My screen is 1024x768.
I am unable to see below the test status field for the transaction.
It looks like there is a lot of space around the numbers in the calendar and the transaction register has a lot of space.
Dropping the font size from 10 to 9 shrinks up everything gaining enough space that the buttons are partially visible thus providing a work around.

Comment 9 Josh Sled 2007-04-06 17:26:10 UTC
r15841.  The 3 major components are now on separate notebook pages.
