The open project dialog says something like "Choose project, cmake, blabla to open" which can get quite long in German. The heading should be used for, say "Open Project" and then perhaps have a sub-heading in regular font explaining what it does. Alternatively it could at least wrap as it causes the dialog to fill the entire width of the screen on a laptop Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press Ctrl+O on the start page of KDevelop 2. 3. Actual Results: Cringe Expected Results: A regularly sized dialog with a help text ontop
Maybe if we touch this anyways we should try to get rid of the embedded file dialog? That is not going to work well on other platforms (windows). One option would be two (or more) QCommandLinkButtons, "open a directory as a project", "import project from build system file". That'd also make it clearer what actually happens. I know a lot of users who in the beginning cannot figure out that you can simply select a directory and get that loaded as a project. Thoughts?
+1 for getting rid off the embedded file dialog altogether. It doesn't work well on Windows, as you say. It's actually on my TODO, see: https://phabricator.kde.org/T1129
Guys I can try to work on this bug
@kfunk I know, that's why I looked into it and noticed it's probably not going to happen as long as it is embedded in that widget :] @akshay, sure, go for it; maybe we should first come to a conclusion how we want it to look like, though?
How do I access the font size to change and solve this bug..?
This is fixed now with Sven's refactoring of the Open Project Dialog.
