Description Sebastien Bacher 2014-10-02 09:11:51 UTC
Using eog 3.12 with gtk 3.12 (but seems like the issue is still there in trunk since the code didn't change)

- open an image in eog
- click the rotate button
- close eog

-> the confirmation dialog has a long text (especially in some locales/if the filename is not a small one).

there is a similar issue in the dialog you get with several images with unsaved changes

(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729532 discuss a bit similar issues and has suggestions on what to do to resolve those)

Had to use some deprecated alignment properties again, as the label alignment would break once the label is wrapped, but it seems this is being taken care of in gtk-3.16.

    EogCloseConfirmationDialog: Fix label line wrapping (mult. imgs)
    
    Set a maximum width to actually make line wrapping happen.
    Required using deprecated alignment properties again as the label
    alignment would go off once line wrapping occured.
