GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 438639
Broken layout of the Send/Receive dialog
Last modified: 2013-09-13 00:51:30 UTC
Forwarding from a downstream bug report: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=240147 ---- mclasen (reporter) ---- I see a horizontal scrollbar, and the buttons are half cut off [1]. Manually resizing the dialog does not fix this problem, next time the dialog is too small again. [1] Screenshot: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=154743 ---- me ---- The dialog apparently has a hardcoded limit of 750 x 400 pixels. I can see the rationale for wanting to limit the size of the dialog but hardcoded numbers doesn't feel like the right way to do it. Maybe use a percentage of the screen dimensions? Other suggestions? Also, this seems like a packing issue as well. The contents of the dialog is packed into a GtkTable and every cell has 'xoptions' of GTK_EXPAND | GTK_FILL. Seems like one of the columns should shrink when the dialog hits its max width; perhaps the progress bar since it doesn't accurately show progress anyway. Not familiar enough with packing and GtkTables to know how to fix this off-hand, but I'll play around with it. ---- me ---- I forgot to mention that the limit is enforced when a "map-event" signal is emitted. It does a gtk_widget_set_size_request() on the dialog. ---- mclasen ---- You probably need to ellipsize the labels if you want to enforce any hard limit
