User/newcomer can't recognize that there is a draggable part on the visual aid in the resize dialog. Compared to gparted, where we see huge arrow-like graphics at the selected partition edges, this tool shows a wide gray border, and thats all. Another tiny thingy inside this dialog: we are informed that the partition minimum/maximum size can be x.xx GiB. However, the 3 input fields (before, size, after) metrics are in MiB. This is not so friendly - again, compared to gparted, where we get the info / input fields in the same scale (MiB). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. have a resizable partition 2. select that partition 3. click resize/move User look at the partiton graphic, then at the info lines (min/max sizes), and then at the input fields. Actual Results: user don't see that there are resizer helpers at the partition graphics. user have to launch kcalc and calculate free space/new size in MiB. Expected Results: User recognize at first that he/she can drag the partition edges. User info and input fields are in the same scale/measure or can change to/from GiB/MiB. It was lauched from a kubuntu 12.10 live dvd.
