Bug Description

version 1.3.2 of power manager

Open power manager to something other than Never - label fails to show the *whole* inactive time.

Increase size of xfpm to be able to read label, then resize to default dialogue size and set time to Never and label is incomprehensible

Screenshots attached.

In the 'System tab' when changing the value of the 'Put system to sleep when...' slider, its label is unable to properly output the respective value

Quick question, does resizing the dialog resolve the issue?
(It's possible that this is a bug in Gtk2 itself.)

Maximizing the dialog makes the label readable, but upon reverting the dialog to its original size makes it unreadable (overlapped) once again since

I see no easy way to fix this, except shortening the "Put system to sleep when inactive for" label to e.g. "When inactive for". IMHO, this would be the ideal solution anyway.

Pushed to git. There should be enough time for updating translations before the next micro or minor release.
