james: if you check the 'size' tab in the window list preferences, how
wide is the 'maximum size'? [Please reopen when you provide the info,
thanks.]

Comment 3 James Read 2004-03-09 20:35:17 UTC 
Sorry, this isnt really a bug, its just I had to fiddle with the max /
min sizes to get it to act correctly.
