SUMMARY
I am trying to import a .csv file. When I slect the file and its parameters and am ready to import it I cannot do so because the 'Data Source" entry window overlaps the bottom of the screen so I cannot access the portion where I direct the file import to.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Closed program and re-opened - same result
2. Tried to resize the Data Source window - can't find a way to do so
3.

The data source frame is not resizable, of course. But the whole dialog window should be resizable. Can you try to resize the dialog window?

Committed on 30/06/2024 at 13:19.
Pushed by asemke into branch 'master'.

Optimized the layout in ImportFileDialog and in AsciiOptionsWidget to reduce
the size of the dialog and to make it more usable also on smaller screens.
