GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 592866
window width varies from call to call
Last modified: 2012-11-02 10:33:12 UTC
I called echo test three times and the window width is too often too big. My test case ("show call panel" is inactive) 1. starting ekiga 3.2.5 - width is 232 (OK) 2. do echo test - width is 639 (OK) 3. clearing the call - width is 369 (should be 232 again) 4. do echo test - width is 871 (grow wider than before) 5. clearing the call - width is 417 (grow more wider than before) 6. do echo test - width is 1103 (wow, how large) 7. clearing the call - width is 232 (OK) 8. repeat with 2. Expected behavior: - Before placing a call memorize the window width. - After clearing the call restore the old memorized window width.
We had this problem, bug #551923. I think we should find a consensus here, for how to set the window size, do you have an idea, Dominik? Is it on windows or gnu/linux?
It's Windows and Linux. The test results in comment #1 were made under Linux. The behavior depends on the video size: - 176x144: at each call the window becomes bigger and bigger. (Linux & Windows) - 320x240: under Linux mostly OK, under Windows nearly never OK. - 352x288: Linux OK, Windows mostly OK. - 640x480: Linux mostly OK. Windows sometimes OK (normally it growths each time). "OK" means it looks like as in http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=551923#c3 described (if I understand correctly) and it's IMHO a good solution. "mostly OK" means for every 4th or 5th call the window was too big. (about 100 pixels). The next call was OK. I minor issue I think.
This is no longer relevant, as since about 6 months calling window has been separated from contact list window.
