Reading upstream, it's more a feature, and so, they Won't Fix this bug.

Richard Laager: for me, typing into such small area feels very uncomfortable. Its psychological thing: I feel restricted and want to enlarge the typing area to get some free space, even if I'm not going to use it. Its like having big rooms in your flat: of course, you can live in small and cramped flat assuming that you don't have much furniture, but is much more pleasing to live in flat that has big rooms and lot of free space. -- pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 209553] Re: pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window
To expand on what Leonid said, I also like it larger because it controls the bottom of the main chat window above it, which I don't like to be too low. Having a larger area for my typing helps to visually distinguish the top area from the bottom area as well. I can understand if this was done for a security reason or something, but changing a program from offering an option to no longer offering it at all, is not the way to write software. It's a shame: I really like Pidgin and have been willing to overlook some of its other minor flaws and limitations, but this one just might cause me to abandon it in search of something else. -- pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 209553] Re: pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window
an option for the minimum size of the text area This does not address the underlying problem, which is that sometimes one wants to set the size manually. I cannot comprehend why this should not be an option, as it was before. Have it dynamically change size, that's great, but allow me to drag it bigger if I want, and then respect that choice. Regardless of whether this is truly considered a bug, it's a severe behavior regression that should be fixed. -- pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 209553] Re: pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window
Some reports about this are really reports about a bug where the input area is basically zero pixels high. See bug #201134. Hopefully this is fixed in 2.4.1. If it's not, please let me know on that bug report. Most objections we've seem upstream seem to deal with the text area being too small. Some people have objected to the input area not being easily clickable. They don't realize (because it's non-obvious, but there's not much we can do about it) that clicking the message history area and typing will automatically move them to the input area. A few object to it resizing automatically at all. To address this, an option for the minimum size of the text area has been added upstream. That should be in the next release and hopefully Ubuntu can pick up either the whole release or at least that patch. If you don't feel that option would be sufficient, please let me know *why* (explain your use case). ** Changed in: pidgin (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Fix Committed -- pidgin 2.4 cannot resize text entry window https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209553 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
