Description Tomas Persson 2009-03-05 13:49:39 UTC 
Version:           1.11.0 (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I run KDE on a computer with a screen of 1024x600 pixels. When I start KMails configuration, the height of the window is larger than 600 pixels, so the lower part falls outside the screen. It is not possible to fix this through the "special application settings", nor is it possible to resize the window, so it is probably set to a minimum height that is larger than 600. This makes configuration hard, since I can not see all, and have to guess short keyboard cuts for buttons.

The configuration window has grown again... (tested in kmail 1.11.90, kde 4.2.65 svn trunk 933866)

Small note: with the default KDE settings, you can move the windows by holding
the Alt key and dragging windows from any point of them.

Thanks, the Alt-key helps a lot. I didn't knew about that.

With KDE 4.2.3 I fixed a little bug and the window not fits into 765x605. Still not optimal, but a bit better.

Hi,

For information there is an older open bug for this problem (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90940) ==> perhaps it is better to centralize to this 90940.

@Raphaël, Let's do it the other way. This bug blocks 90940. Until this bug is not fixed, 90940 is not fixed.
By the way, in svn revision 1067201 kde 4.4 beta 2, the window can be shrinked to 600 pixels (even it starts a little taller).

Hi,

OK I'll report that to Mandriva

Thx
