Description John Sullivan 2001-09-10 00:33:42 UTC
The Nautilus window size is hard-wired to 650 x 400 in
nautilus_window_constructed. It might be sensible to hard-wire the size, since
we don't want the window size to bounce around when switching locations and
there's no particular size that's ideal for every location. But at the very
least we need to define constants for this. We might also consider only
hardwiring the height, if that's possible, or using some mechanism other than
constants to choose the hard-wired size.

Both the default size and the minimum size are hard-wired and we need to take
care of both.

Bug 42870 is a particular case where the hardwiring makes it unusable for
someone's configuration.

I'm implementing smarter initial-window-size logic, so I'm taking this bug.

The fix doesn't appear to work when $DISPLAY'ing across a network. My current
viewport resolution was 640x480, and the nautilus window was bigger than my
screen. 

I can provide more information if you need it.

I misunderstood the bug, fixipating this and opening a new bug. The problems
indicated here are resolved.
