Hi,
I would like to propose another small enhancement: a change of the
default size of application windows on Linux. In some cases--Writer,
start center, Math, Base--the application window is almost square by
default (for Calc, Impress and Draw it is fullscreen). This does not
work well with the new sidebar, which was designed with widescreen
displays in mind.
Issue number is 122709
(https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122709)
I would like to change that to what is used on Mac, use 80% of width
and height of the screen, on which the application starts.For screen
widths of 1024 and below I would still use the current values
(therefore you will see no differences in the 1024x768 and 800x600
screen shots.) As this sizing scheme is already in use on the Mac
platform it is tried and accepted (at least I know of no
complaints). The default fullscreen mode for Calc, Impress and Draw
would not be changed.
Here are some comparisons for the current state (left side) and the
proposed sizes (right side). To speed up download I have provided
smaller versions (25% and 50%) along with the original sizes:
800x 600 25% [1], 50% [2], 100% [3]
1024x 768 25% [4], 50% [5], 100% [6]
1280x1024 25% [7], 50% [8], 100% [9]
1680x1050 25% [10], 50% [11], 100% [12]
1920x1200 25% [13], 50% [14], 100% [15]
The change is rather small and restricted to Linux (the GTK module)
and should have low risk of introducing regressions.
Best regards,
Andre
