I agree with you this is very very annoying and would love to see a reasoning why it's like that. I will say in GTKs defense that every widget platform I've ever used has the same problem. Win32, Borland, QT and Web Forms all do the same thing and have fat combo widgets. Technically it's just a text entry with a button at the end, so it should have been easy to make the combo the same size as a text entry. I can only assume they didn't to keep consistent with everything else on the planet. Good luck sizing the combo yourself. I read a thread several months back about how they plan on fixing the combo resizing ugliness. Don't know what version of GTK that was aimed for though. Might be dependent on Cairo since it's the button image that causes most of the issues. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
