Public bug reported: Binary package hint: epiphany-browser
Epiphany resizes its window on its own, instead of keeping the size I set it at. This is not a matter of Javascript tricks on the pages, it happens even on completely pure HTML pages. I'm using Gutsy, up to date as of yesterday. I have disabled desktop effects, i.e., I'm using metacity, not compiz. The scenario: I browse around with the Epiphany window set to about half the width of my screen. I have a small laptop screen, and that size is pretty much optimal for me, text-width-wise. This also lets me see more stuff than just the browser (such as IRC or e-mail). It's fairly important to me that things are set up this way on the screen. So, there I am, reading through e-mail, and clicking on links in e-mails, and new browser windows open up. The new windows are of the correct size. Everything is well. When I'm through reading e-mails, I go look at the browser windows, which in the mean time have finished downloading the page content. As soon as I click on one, it resizes itself to be full size (same as "maximized window", except it isn't maximized, and the window still has border decorations). This is the part that is a bug. It's driving me nuts, having to resize the windows manually all the time. It doesn't happen every time, either. I have not yet been able to determine a pattern when it does happen. The page where it happened just now, and which finally triggered me to file this bug, is http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000970.html . If this is a feature, I'd like a way to disable it. FWIW, this didn't happen in Debian unstable, as of two weeks ago, when I switched the laptop to run Ubuntu. ** Affects: epiphany-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- epiphany resizes its window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150959 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for epiphany-browser in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
