You have been subscribed to a public bug: At different applications that use the GtkFileChooser (gedit open/save as, firefox browse for upload, etc) the file chooser dialog will most of the times come up with a minimum size.
repeatedly opening the dialog will, however, make it show with a bigger (default?) size at random times. small dialog: http://img252.imageshack.us/my.php?image=filedialoggedit1kg3.png big dialog: http://img129.imageshack.us/my.php?image=filedialoggedit2ic0.png $ uname -a Linux inacio-desktop 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 14 18:40:44 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux $ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu intrepid (development branch) \n \l $ dpkg -l | grep gtk2 ii gtk2-engines 1:2.16.0-0ubuntu1 theme engines for GTK+ 2.x ii gtk2-engines-murrine 0.60.1 cairo-based gtk+-2.0 theme engine ii gtk2-engines-pixbuf 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 Pixbuf-based theme for GTK+ 2.x ii libgtk2-perl 1:1.183-1 Perl interface to the 2.x series of the Gimp ii libgtk2.0-0 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 The GTK+ graphical user interface library ii libgtk2.0-bin 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 The programs for the GTK+ graphical user int ii libgtk2.0-cil 2.12.1-1ubuntu2 CLI binding for the GTK+ toolkit 2.12 ii libgtk2.0-common 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 Common files for the GTK+ graphical user int ii libgtk2.0-dev 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 Development files for the GTK+ library ii libgtk2.0-doc 2.14.3-0ubuntu3 Documentation for the GTK+ graphical user in ii libwxgtk2.6-0 2.6.3.2.2-2ubuntu5 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (GT ii python-gtk2 2.13.0-0ubuntu8 Python bindings for the GTK+ widget set ii python-wxgtk2.6 2.6.3.2.2-2ubuntu5 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (wx ii scim-gtk2-immodule 1.4.7-3ubuntu10 GTK+2 input method module with SCIM as backe ** Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- GtkFileChooser dialog size randomly broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285285 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
