And of course window size is computed without taking title into account, otherwise we would have seen windows larger than screen. Both problems are now fixed in CVS, titles are truncated if needed so that windows fit on screen. Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

The problem is : what is a long title ? partman templates in french all lack titles, probably because of this bug, so if we have to shorten them, we need to know the limit -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Looks like a newt bug, try whiptail --yesno 'Foo' 7 20 --title 'This is a long title' The title does not accept embedded newlines, so I am afraid that the only option for cdebconf is to shorten titles with ellipsis. Do you want so, or should this bugreport be reassigned to newt? Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#235184: display glitch with very long title
Package: cdebconf
Severity: normal
partman had a very long title, and in the newt frontend, cdebconf did not
display any title at all at the top of the dialog box, just a uninterrupted
border. And there was a display glitch, it displayed a line drawing character on
the far left hand side of the screen. It's a vertical line with a horizontal
line intersecting it from the right:

Shortening the title some fixed it.
