[Kubuntu Hardy] Ardour main window to big

[Lars]

Binary package hint: ardour-i686

- Kubuntu Hardy Beta
- ardour i686 1:2.3.1-1

The main window of Ardour ist bigger as the Desktop. It is impossible to make this window smaller.

Could you please give some details on the screen resolution? Thanks

[Lars (lars-boettcher)]

My resolution ist 1280x800.

I have done a photo of the whole screen. The problem is the menu bar. The display of the parametres (sample rate, buffer etc.) is too long.
The font-size should be smaller.

I'm inclined to close this as this really looks like something that should go upstream.

Lars,

Can you just delete the .ardour2 folder in your personnal home folder (it is a hiden file) ?? I guess it would solve the problem.

It appends for exemple if you open an Ardour2 project created with an other screen resolution or an older version of Ardour. Sometime, too, Ardour2 save the window size of last use, etc... It can be a problem of Gnome theme too, most possible a screen definition problem that render windows too big in general. (I mean not only the Ardour2 window)

I had a lot of problem like that with previous Ardour2 versions on my 1366x768 laptop screen, since most of the time I record with my laptop on a firewire hard disk / sound card, then work on the mix on my 1650x1080 workstation screen. Since Ardour2.1 there is no more problem, but I had too delete hte .ardour2 folder. Most of the time, after chatting a lot on irc with Ardour2 developpers, the reason and solution is quite simply.

You will find inclosed a picture of Ardour2 on my latptop screen. You will see that everything is ok.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04?
