window enlarges when new chat tab is opened

[end-user]

Binary package hint: pidgin

8.04 Ubuntu Hardy
Pidgin 2.4.1

When using Pidgin, I set the chat window to the minimal vertical size allowable, and keep it under my browser window. When I open a new chat tab, say for another chat room, I would like the window to stay the same size I have set it at so that it fits perfectly and compactly under my browser.

Instead, adding a new chat tab enlarges the whole chat window (vertically) with it, instead of encompassing the added tab in the existing size of the window. This makes the windows overlap and I have to readjust them.

Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Could you try to reproduce the same with Ubuntu 8.10 or 9.04? Thanks in advance.
