Fit window to movie disabled for non-obvious reason

[tsg1zzn]

Binary package hint: totem

When the Totem window is maximized the menu items "Resize 1:2", "Resize 1:1" and "Resize 2:1" are grey out. It's not obvious to the average user that this is because the window is maximized. And even when you realize that, there's no obvious way it has to be like that. Simply unmaximize the window when the user selects the resize menu. This will be what most users expect.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version. Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.

This is still a problem in oneiric, moreover, these menu items now don't work at all - even when the window is not maximized.
