login-dialog: Increase top/bottom padding (1.05 KB, patch)
2013-03-15 17:32 UTC, Florian Müllner 		committed Details | Review

Description Matthias Clasen 2012-10-10 03:01:22 UTC 
When there are many users in the selection list, there is not enough padding between the list and the top and bottom of the screen. There should be a wide border around it.

May need reevaluation after the recent changes
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2013-03-05 23:11:24 UTC 
very much still happens. The user list grows all the way to the top panel

login-dialog: Increase top/bottom padding

The login dialog has a maximum height set to prevent the user list
from growing indefinitively. However this approach fails if the
monitor height is smaller as said maximum, so add some additional
top/bottom padding to make sure there's some whitespace above/below
the user list in that case as well.
