Description Murray Cumming 2006-02-10 15:04:54 UTC 
After

- show the GtkFileChooserDialog
- user expands the expander.
- user clicks a response button.
- dialog is shown again (for instance, if the chosen location was read-only for a save).

then the dialog is smaller than when it was expanded. The expander is still expanded, but there is very little space for it, so it only shows one file in the treeview.

This one gets a +1 from me, especially in openoffice which adds additonal stuff its almost unusable with the default size.

Atleast remember the last size and use that the next all the time, now I keep resizing it every time I choose save as from ooo.

Is that still occurring with latest GTK? There have been many different problems hanging around for a long time...
Comment 3 Federico Mena Quintero 2009-02-27 19:50:42 UTC 
This should no longer happen; the chooser remembers the size you gave it.
