Version: 3.9.0 (using 4.1.65 (KDE 4.1.65 (KDE 4.2 >= 20080903)), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.24-21-generic Invoking the replace dialog (ctrl+r) causes the kdevelop window to resize (even when maximized) resulting in the window becoming larger than the screen in my case. It seems like the minimum size is set since i can not manually resize to anything smaller in height when the replace dialog is open.
It does and indeed kate doesn't have the problem. This could be related to our mainwindow gui. OTOH it could also be that katepart changes its preferred size and we're just giving it the space if we have it on the desktop.
This is currently the most annoying thing for me. voted. It will completely push the lower toolviews off-screen. This only seems to happen when there's vertical toolviews open. Hide the vertical toolviews and the mainwindow will resize normally again.
Clicking the maximize buttons also doesn't work. There's a short flicker as if it tries to resize, but then it goes back to being larger than the available space (i.e. resize behind the panel). I'm pretty sure this is due to our toolview-implementation.
I'm 100%: it's easy to reproduce this with only toolviews (zero files open).
How? I mean how do you trigger the resize without a file? Also this doesn't seem to happen under a kde3 desktop. So maybe plasma or kwin (not sure which component is responsible here) just fail to make sure the window doesn't get larger...
Seems to happen only with certain toolviews on specific positions. eg left project, right qtest, bottom code browser. Then close/open a bit.

> This is currently the most annoying thing for me. voted. +1, this is indeed very annoying.
I recently got a netbook which has a screen resolution of 1024*600. Now the window resizes even when the tool view is closed. It resizes to larger size when a tool view to the side is open. So it seems to be resolution dependent.
Any news on this? This is the most annoying bug in KDevelop, and triggers _very_ often, either by opening toolviews on the left sidebar or by opening the find or replace dialog.

No, its really hard to debug this as its related to the layouting and sizeHinting between KMainWindow, KDevelop's own layout for the ideal-ui and the katepart.
SVN commit 976783 by tmcguire: Don't confuse width and height. This seems to fix the problem that the main window would grow bigger than the screen. BUG: 170863 M +1 -1 ideallayout.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=976783
