gnome-mouse-properties does not fit in 1024x600 screen

[Ying-Chun Liu]

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Hi,

I've made a patch for gnome-mouse-properties. It will add scrolledbars in some dialogs when the screen height is less than 600.

Please consider including this patch, thanks.

Can you please forward the patch to GNOME too? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME

changing glade files makes upgrader complicate, would it be possible to do that by code changes rather?

[Ying-Chun Liu (paulliu)]

Hi Sebastien,

This patch only do code changes.

[Anmar Oueja (anmar)]

Sebastian/mpt: Guys. Is the scroll bar adequate or you think we should suffle things around like in the about me dialogue? Please let us know.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the scrollbar will do for jaunty it's late to reshuffle things, I'm busy this week though and will probably not review those changes before next week

Paul and I discussed a non-scrollbar plan:

1. Split General tab to be horizontally layed out (move Drag & Drop and Double Click sections to right of others).
2. Lay out Accessibility a little differently (2x2 mouse gestures rather than 4x1 and move Dwell Click help text to right)

new glade file

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

thank for your work there, the updated version works but displays a double border in the scrollbar displaying case, could you look at fixing those?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

I will upload this change since it doesn't break the standard desktop case, would still be nice to fix the bug
