Compiler dialog is too big

[Leonti]

Hello!
I'm facing a very silly problem.
I'm trying to add new compiler (mingw) to Codeblocks (opensuse 11.1, KDE 4.3, GTK theme - Clearlooks).
My problem is that my screen height is 768 pixels and there is not enough space for Compiler dialog - I can't press the button to add directory in compiler search directories.
This is the link to screenshot of compiler dialog:

I tried different GTK themes to find the one taking less space but with no positive outcome.
As screenshot suggests I was able to add directtories in a past, but now it seems impossible.

Is there is a way to manually edit compiler settings? If yes, what file should I edit?

Thanks.
Leonti

I suggest trying a different nightly; they are working on fixing this in the scintilla branch; but, not sure when it will be applied to trunk and nightly build made.

http://svn.berlios.de/viewvc/codeblocks/branches/scintilla/

I myself compile from SVN so I switched to the scintilla branch for right now.

I'd like to change it to be used as library (like we did it with wxPropGrid), and change wxSmith to "know" it, otherwise all changes made to wxs-files in C::B have to be overworked manually.

I am currently working on this, but my boss wants me to do other things from time to time.

on linux, you can hold the "alt" key, and drag with the right mouse button to resize a window from any corner
or hold the "alt" key and the left mouse button, to drag a window from any place (not just the titlebar), so you can actually move a window's titlebar outside the screen

all these gestures can be done "cliking" in ANY area of the window, over buttons or comboboxes

your Window manager will inercept it and move the window

yes, linux no problem. But that small OS from Redmond ;-) ....

Thanks for reminding me of existing of "Alt" thing.
Have been using linux for years, but completely forgot about moving windows with "Alt"
It solved my problem!
