Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux When sizing the Image Editor window greater than 2248 pixels wide, the horizontal canvas space available for the image shrinks substantially. The resize handle for the side pane is half way between the side pane and the image canvas space. Resizing the side pane will correct the right side of the image canvas, but the left side will remain about 25% of the window width away from the left side of the window. Here are images demonstrating the problem: Good (2250px wide): http://boole.mightye.org/temp/snapshot1.png Bad (larger than 2250px wide): http://boole.mightye.org/temp/snapshot2.png As a result I am unable to maximize the image editor window on my 30" screen.
I can not confirm this. Eric, is it still valid? Otherwise I will close it. Andi
Yes, it seems to be, maximizing digiKam editor window (not main image viewer window) at 2560x1600 resolution, then collapsing the side panel so the image space takes up the full screen width causes the image to become thumbnail sized as in the sample images originally attached. Digikam 0.9.3 using KDE 3.5.9 (Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.10)
I can not maximize the window to that size, only scale it manually to your dimensions or higher. But than I can not confirm it, maybe it must really be in maximized mode? Have you tried digiKam 0.9.4 already? Maybe it was fixed in there?
Sorry, I don't have access to 0.9.4. It happens whether the window is in maximized state or manually resized. The images I'm using are 4320x2868, but even if I use 2560x1699 or 1024x768 files I see the same behavior. File type doesn't seem to matter either - JPG and NEF [raw] show the same behavior). The only thing that seems to matter is once the image canvas exceeds that threshold.
Eric, Perhaps it's a side effect of : -Open GL mode with windows manager. (do you use it ?) -The KDE windows style (Which one is used ?) Note: here is have 3 flat pannels to work in xinerama. I cannot reproduce this problem. Gilles Caulier
Actually Gilles you made me think it's related to the window manager. I'm using Metacity under Gnome. The issue appears with and without GL desktop effects. When I first reported the bug last year it happened under both KDE and Gnome (the screenshots under my original report were from KDE), but now it seems to only happen under Gnome.
Ah, So it's a window manager style problem. Under Gnome, try to use another one... Note : i never use Gnome, only KDE. This is why i never see this problem here. Gilles
I see the same behavior using any of the built-in themes under Metacity (Ubuntu 8.10), and also using Compiz (Emerald window manager) on various window decorator themes. The common aspect seems to be Gnome now. Sorry for the delay, just back from a trip.
Eric, What's new about this report ? it still valid using digiKam 0.9.4 (using KDE3) or digiKam 0.10.0 (using KDE4) ? Gilles Caulier
