But we don't *have to* apply it selectively. As I tried to describe it in blog, and elaborated in the other mail, I deliberately made as little as possible appearance and behavior changes to the dialog. If you'll run it on large screen, the only change you will notice is that it has a smaller gaps and margins. It is fully usable otherwise. Maybe even that could be elaborated, but note that we apply many "worse" patches to gtk+ in OE already. Consider disable-tooltips.patch. It cuts off tooltips unconditionally. Run with mouse? Sorry. Not that current Angstrom's xserver-kdrive setup allows to run with mouse at all... etc, etc. No worries, all those issues are on my todo list. And the sooner we finish with the current issue, the sooner I'll be able to get to them. > It > would be better if the screen size is checked at runtime.

And here where caveat comes - think about screen rotation. Think about changing resolutions. Think about these actions happening while dialog is on screen... > libgpewidget does it in this way too. > Greetings > Florian -- Best regards, Paul mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-devel mailing list Angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-devel
