Okay here is a simple modification that makes the preferences window smaller. You can even try it without having to recompile evolution. What I did is the following: In the "Mail Preferences" part I added a new tab named "Display" from the "General" tab I then moved the "Message Fonts" part and "Message Display" part to the new "Display" tab.
Just replace /usr/share/evolution/2.30/ui/mail-config.ui by the file I attached to this post to check it out. ** Attachment added: "Modification of the preferences GUI" https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/23810/+attachment/1915177/+files/mail-config.ui -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/23810 Title: Evolution is unusable in 1024x768 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
