Description Timo Lindfors 2010-08-10 21:17:01 UTC
On a 480x640 display with DPI of 285 the photos displayed by contacts are tiny and use only a fraction of the screen size. Internally I have worked this around with just

 				    width / ((gdouble) height /

Can you think of a better solution? Automatic detection sounds tricky. Could this zoom factor be made an option?

Pimlico is not under active development anymore, had its last tarball releases in the year 2011, and has not seen code changes for many years. 
Its codebases have been archived:
 https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/tasks/commits/master
 https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/dates/commits/master
 https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/contacts/commits/master
Its website does not exist anymore: http://pimlico-project.org/

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
