Description Con Kolivas 2009-06-22 11:11:29 UTC
Version:           0.9.4 (using 3.5.10, Debian Package 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-0lenny1 (lenny/sid))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-ck1

Upon upgrading to a very high resolution display 2560x1600, I note that any windows that digikam launches itself (ie after the application has started) have very narrow frames that I cannot increase the width of. The application when launched itself has frames that are appropriately sized, but not any windows launched afterwards. I'll be attaching screnshots of the offending windows.

Sample window 1

This is the main window that opens when I launch digikam after "camera detect and download" thereby being a window that is launched after digikam has started.

0.9.4 ==> try 0.9.5 or better 0.10.0

Sample window 2

This is the window launched by the "edit" option.

Oh that was a quick response! Sorry I'm just using what came with debian stable. We'll see what happens in the future when I get around to upgrading.

Sound like a problem in Qt QSplitter size encoding. Must be fixed in Qt4 (digiKam 0.10.0)

Thanks. Should I change the status of this bug? I can't confirm it's fixed on newer qt/digikam myself at this time unfortunately.
Comment 7 Mikolaj Machowski 2009-06-22 19:45:30 UTC
This thing was reported before. I think it was closed (cannot find on list of opened bugs) but don't remember if it was due to actual fixing or lack of feedback from reporter.

Con,

Can you try again with digiKam 1.0.0 release. Thanks in advance

Comment 9 Con Kolivas 2010-01-28 10:00:35 UTC
Having upgraded to debian testing with kde 3.4.3 and digikam 1.0 I can confirm this is no longer a problem. I can't comment on other versions of kde.

Thanks to report. I close this file now.

This looks like the same as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148805, isn't it?

So this can be closed as well, Gilles?
