I'm always amused by people who have big, hires screens and want to maximize windows. In my opinion, on a 20" wide screen, I want layouts to be narrow enough to be in a nice tall window that's narrow enough to allow easy reading. Now of course a fixed width design should be based on ems, not pixels (sadly this layout is not based on ems, which is a problem). That way you can enlarge the font and see the entire layout expand for easier reading. Letting the text spread out wide is not readable. > > Thanks, > > Philippe > --- > Scarlet One, ADSL 6 Mbps + Telephone, from EUR 29,95... > http://www.scarlet.be/ > > _______________________________________________ > gtk-devel-list mailing list > gtk-devel-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list > -- Michael Torrie Assistant CSR, System Administrator Chemistry and Biochemistry Department Brigham Young University Provo, UT 84602 +1.801.422.5771 _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
