Properties Window Size
« on: March 08, 2010, 01:55:46 pm »
I justed upgraded to rev 6187 and suddenly the project properties window is unreasonably large (vertically it nearly fills the whole screen with a lot of unused space at the bottom in most tabs). Horizontal size seems to be okay.

Ubuntu 9.04, 64 bit

Just noticed, that I posted this in the wrong forum section. You might want to move it to the development section, so it doesn't get lost. This bug surely should be fixed first, if you want to have a new release.

It's best to report it to the bug tracker, there wouldn't be lost...  :lol:

Also have you tried to delete/move ~/.codeblocks ?

I was refering to the announcement for the new release, that requested all show stopper bugs to be posted in the development section.

Anyway, here is the bug report: https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=16951&group_id=5358

And no, removing .codeblocks didn't fix anything.

Weired... doesn't happen here. Can you post another screenshot with the second (third...) tab, please?

Sorry to disappoint you, but there is nothing special to see either, especially since each screenshot only shows a fraction of the window content.

But after comparing the tabs and doing some scrolling I made the following observations:

- All tabs but "Project settings" and EnvVars use all of the available vertical space.
- The vertical scrollbar slider has the same size in each tab.
- In the debugger tab the "Additional debugger search dirs:" and the "Remote debugging support (GDB only!)" take each half the available vertical space.

And one more:

in the Libraries tab the "Known libraries" frame is nearly exactly high enough to contain all entries without having a separate scroll bar (there is actually space for one more, i.e. one blank line at the bottom).

The error does not happen here (debian 64-bit).

What was the last revision, where it works correctly ?
