GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 421715
do not allow sourcefactories buttons to be squashed
Last modified: 2007-04-25 05:57:24 UTC
I will attach a patch that fixes the bug in the media library notebook: when using the French version (with slightly longer translated strings), the buttons were "overflowing" from the gtk notebook onto the rest of the UI, which was plain ugly. Found out the problem was due to this: self.set_size_request(300, -1) The size request messes up the layout and is, I think, unecessary since the buttons ensure that the layout has a suitable minimum size. This patch is made against my already-patched trunk copy (see bug #415060). The actual change of this patch is just one removed line (line 12 in the .patch file).

Edward, I think you actually incorporated that patch in current SVN, am I right? Can't find traces of size requests for the source factories now...
it seems I fixed the issue... without using your patch :( I'm still not very pleased about the general resizing behaviour currently. When the source list switches from the explanation message to the actual list, it sometimes changes size... annoying. I'm going to close this bug. I'll have to be more careful next time.
