Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.0) Installed from: RedHat RPMs OS: Linux When you right click on any document, and choose "Open With" and "Other", the width of this dialog seems to be determined by the maximum length of the command lines associated with the available applications. However, one very common application, Codeweaver's Crossover Office (http://www.codeweavers.com/), uses very very long command lines to launch its applications, and the right side of the dialog falls off the right side of the screen, along with the OK/Cancel buttons, the scrollbar, and window controls! An example command line for launching Photoshop via CXOffice is: "/home/cheeth/cxoffice/bin/wine" --workdir "/home/cheeth/cxoffice/support/dotwine/fake_windows/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop 6.0" "C://Program Files//Adobe//Photoshop 6.0//Photoshp.exe" I'm not sure if this should be considered a bug in Konqueror or KWin, but I believe, if possible, KWin should not allow any application to create a new window with borders outside the viewable screen area. However, dragging Windows so that their edges go beyond the viewable screen are should still be allowed.
I've since switched to SuSE. KDE 3.3.2 level "a" SuSE RPMs show this same behavior. If an application with a very long launch path (Photoshop via CXOffice, in my case) is associated with JPG, when I right-click any JPG and choose "Open With...", the resulting dialog has most of its controls well beyond the right edge of my screen.
Confirmed still present in KDE 3.4/SuSE RPMS.
Here using: Qt: 4.5.1 (qt-copy 960517) KDE: 4.2.71 (KDE 4.2.71 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090428)) kdelibs svn rev. 963904 / kdebase svn rev. 963904 on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.29.1 I can't reproduce this bug. Even when having an application entry with a long name and a long command doesn't expand the "Open With/Other" dialog.
