[PATCH] demos/icon-browser: increase default window size (1.09 KB, patch)

Description Daniel Boles 2016-12-29 00:41:57 UTC
Currently the default width and height for the window are 600 and 800 pixels respectively. This means we only get column of icons (on my setup at least), which is not exactly fun to browse! Every time I run this program to find appropriate icons to use, I have to resize it.

Maybe those dimensions were put in the wrong way around, but even that only gets us 2 rows.

I'd suggest increasing the default dimensions to about 1000 x 700.

[PATCH] demos/icon-browser: increase default window size

This is premised on an assumption that 1024 x 768 is a reasonable resolution to aim for, and allowing some leeway for taskbars and whatnot (while handily maintaining round numbers).

800 x 600 would work in a pinch (and might be what was originally intended?) if that assumption is considered excessive.

This is for master but would be nice to see in my system's 3.22 if possible.

...and of course, I said "row" a couple of times when I meant column. D'oh.
