Description Maciej Pilichowski 2008-11-08 11:19:37 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

upload files dialog: fix the proportions of the widgets

The info part is too small, the height of the file list is too big, the width is fixed, etc. Take a look at the ss.

My wish -- make it as big as it is required, but 
a) not bigger
b) and not bigger than desktop can handle.

Here using:

Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.1.86 (KDE 4.1.86 (KDE 4.2 >= 20081221))
kdelibs svn rev. 901348 / kdebase svn rev. 901348
on ArchLinux x86_64 - Kernel 2.6.27.10

I can reproduce this issue. The dialog width is related to the selected filename lenght. If the filename is short, the dialog can be resized to a minimal width, and the prompt will be cropped.

Never ending issues with message box sizes... I hope to have time to look into this one as well at some point.

Hi,

kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years.

KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish.

If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue.

We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.

Greetings
