Description Matthew Woehlke 2006-08-15 21:37:45 UTC
Version:           3.3.91 (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3 20050227 (Red Hat 3.4.3-22.fc3) 
OS:                Linux

Simplified IDEAl mode in KDevelop 3.4 BETA 1 has several pixels of unnecessary padding around UI elements (e.g. the tabs) that causes it to use MORE screen space than old IDEAl mode. It looks like this may only happen on the "upper"/"lower" edges (quotes because the meaning is off 90 degrees for vertical tabs)

On a similar note (using too much screen space, and more than IDEAl), empty tab docks are not hidden.

My KDE settings:
Style = Bluecurve
Decorations = Glow

(I can attach screenshots if desired; they are about 30 kb each)

For me simlified IDEAl mode is smaller (relative new SVN from 3.4 branch).
Does this also happen with standard theme (plastik)?
please attach the screenshots

Here is what I get in old IDEAl mode. Ignore the upper tab bar; it would be
totally hidden if there were no tabs (that these tabs don't show up in
Simplified IDEAl with no project open may be a bug, but at any rate Simplified
never hides the bar when it is correctly empty). Simplified looks OK in Plastik
(except the resize bars are ugly; can we get those in 'show contents while
dragging' mode? ;-)), so it must be an interaction with Bluecurve.

Can anyone reproduce using Bluecurve?

(Can someone clue me in on what affects whether or not comments get cc'd to the
mailing list? I watch that a lot more religiously than the e-mail address these
are CC'd to...)

This is a bluecurve bug and not a KDevelop bug. Please report it to the bluecurve developers.
