GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 789993
Some dockable dialogs have too big minimum width in two column setup
Last modified: 2018-05-24 18:35:54 UTC
I was just experimenting a bit with my layout and I noticed the following issue. Dialogs like "Pointer" or "Histogram" can be shrunk down to ca. 200px width in normal situations. However as soon as I dock them *under* toolbox and there are some dialogs docked to the left of it, their minimum height jumps up to 250 or 300px. I don't see any reason for this behaviour and it makes difficult to arrange dialogs neatly.
Is this the same as bug 772126?
I think it is a subcase of what was discussed in bug 772126. The main point of it was that minimal width of "Pointer" dialog was changing depending on pixel values. I didn't notice that change myself. Anyway my problem is the second issue described there, so I suppose it can be closed.
We can't have a two-column toolbox that fits all possible dockables. You are probably seeing some allocation side effect that makes it appear like the minimum width was different. I just checked with debug printfs in the code, and it doesn't actually change. Essentially, this is a duplicate of bug 772126. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 772126 ***
See bug 772126. Seems I misunderstood "two-column toolbox" as a toolbox with two columns of tool icons :) Reopening.
