GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 322375
Edit->Preferences is resized after it is shown
Last modified: 2005-11-25 14:25:20 UTC
since the Prefereneces dialog is resized after its shown i always have to move the window to reach the Close button. this is on 1024x768 with several email accounts. This is also not inline with the Gnome 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." (http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/windows.html#windows-show-hide).
