Description astronomo 2011-10-10 12:31:15 UTC 
Version:           2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.5) 
OS:                Linux

My laptop has native resolution 1366x768.  After openning Settings, the dialog can be resized down to 982x623 resolution.  However, clicking on Tools/Build increases its size to 998x748, it is only 20 pixels smaller than my native resolution.  I see that there is no reason for these fixed dimensions, since there is still a lot of unused spaces around the controls.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open kile
2) Click on Settings
3) Try to decrease the dialog size.
4) Click on Tools/Build in the Settings list.
5) Try to decrease the dialog sizes again.

Actual Results:  
The dialog size cannot be decreased below dimensions 998x748.

Expected Results:  
More optimized location of the controls allowing to decrease the size of Settings dialog.

The configuration dialog will have scrollbars in Kile 3.
