GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 311732
No minimum size for side pane
Last modified: 2010-04-29 18:32:54 UTC
Currently the side pane can be resized as small as you want. This creates some weird effects, truncated widgets, etc. I guess the side pane should be only as small as the combobox + the close button (which is already pretty small).
FWIW, evince handles it like in this proposal.
