Hi Raoul

Thanks for checking this out.

I think the extra tall is an optical illusion. The minimum height seems to
be set to fit on a 1024x768 screen. If I choose a screen height less then
768 pixels then the Configure OpenLP window stays the same height but
extends off the bottom of the screen. It doesn't need to be this tall to
fit the potential content. When I resize theres is a minimum height it will
got to which is plenty for the content.

I am on a resolution of 1280x720 because it is 720p for a TV. We are
probably a non-typical user as we use a mini PC behind the TV in the church
running at the resolution for the TV and access it remotely using
teamviewer for service setup. We operate the service using android remote /
web interface and occasionally resorting to a keyboard.

Looking at the code - openlp/core/ui/settingsdialog.py The window is set to
800x700

settings_dialog.resize(800, 700)

I checked and it is 800 wide but around 690 tall excluding the header. It
is the header that puts the bottom of it under the task bar on a 720p
screen.

Thanks again for checking this out.

Simon
