Comment 26 for bug 1014988

The size of the widget is controlled by one line of code (gtk2). So it would be very easy to have it "switch" to an appropriate size depending on a users preference / (is there a tablet mode pref ?) or whatever device / screen size Inkscape detects.

Perhaps the discussion about tablet, notebook and any other device support should happen outside this bug report.

But if there already exists some detection method, am happy to add support for that now.
