Description Sebastien Bacher 2012-03-06 17:15:10 UTC
Using GNOME 3.3.91 with a french locale, when opening the network panel "wired" is selected and the right pane has quite some space, when selecting "wireless" on the left it "shrinks" to the size of the content, that doesn't look nice

That seems to not happen in english, I wonder is the geometry calculation is done on english strings or something?
Comment 1 Sebastien Bacher 2012-03-06 17:31:34 UTC
it seems to adapt for the longest label which can be contained included the hidden one (just tried by acking the .ui and changing "VPN Type" where I've no vpn here)
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2012-05-19 14:27:49 UTC
The problem seems to stem from the fact that both the start hotspot and stop hotspot buttons are visible initially. We only hide one of them when you first switch to the wifi page. Therefore, the box containing the these two buttons and the options button is the thing determining the initial width, and the French translation makes the 'start' label quite a bit longer. 

It seems fixed by setting visible to False for the stop button in the .ui file.
