Description Michael D. Reiley 2009-01-06 16:20:26 UTC
Please describe the problem:
This bug appears when using firefox, but I assume that the gnome file open dialog would be similarly affected for any program. When the filetype selector shows a very long list of filetypes, the window stretches beyond the screen.

Screenshot: http://s200.photobucket.com/albums/aa135/blahboybang/?action=view&current=Screenshot-6.png

Steps to reproduce:
Attempt to upload a file to a photobucket album, or use a similarly affected program.

Actual results:
Window stretches beyond screen (See Screenshot).

Expected results:
File list should be terminated with three dots, indicating that the list is too long.

Does this happen every time?
Yes
