Comment 13 for bug 887737

>I’m playing devil’s advocate here. But the point is: It seems to me that the spacing of buttons, as it was before, was an exception to the usual look’n’feel and that this is more consistent.

I see your point, and I am aware that this is not consistent with the other windows. However, the general statistics window is fairly unique. While all buildings share the same window layout and common elements, there is only on general statistics window. As such, it contains different information and works in a different way than for instance the building windows.

Also, I noticed the minimap also use buttons which scales depending on the size of the window. While it would be possible to squeeze them in on a single row, this would make it harder both to see what the button does and also to hit it when attempting to click on it.
