GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 318788
Preferences Window Is Resized After Initial Display
Last modified: 2005-10-14 14:43:03 UTC
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu 5.10 The Edit -> Preferences window is displayed, then resized to make it somewhat larger, then filled in. This happens every time, not just the first. From the HIG: "Always show a window as soon as possible, but make sure your window is the correct size before displaying it. Resizing a window after it is visible is disorienting and gives an unpolished look to your application."
