Not huge, but certainly wider than a normal side panel.

Mine is a scrolled window instead of frame/hbox/scrollbar, but the more likely reason is that I don't set fake initial sizes. The problem is, unlike the terminals, Scope's "Program Terminal" and "Debug Console" may emit a lot of text before being focused by the user. With fake sizes, this text is ugly wrapped, due to the small "width", and scrolled up outside the window, due to the small "height". I'll try to find something satisfactory, and leave a comment at this bug report when finished. -- E-gards: Jimmy _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
