The problem is deeper.
Except for the outer window (and you can check the wiki, there is an
article that explains why autosizing is limted for the outer window),
except for that all the buttons etc are autosizing.
But even if the window was autosizing, that would make the problem worse.
Only when the restrictions are not properly considered.
I have some boxes that run a VGA resolution (either 800*600 or even
640*400) and the dialogs just fit, some even are to big, and it's
painfull to impossible to get to the ok button (know where it is, and
count tabs untill you believe it has focus).
Right. I found it impossible to configure Windows itself, with settings
dialogs hiding essential settings and buttoms below the screen, on the
system of a disabled person with low graphics resolution on a big screen.
So make the window/dialog bigger and thinks will be even harder.
When the minimum size of the contents exceed the screen size, even a
dialog should have automatic scroll bars. The exit etc. buttons should
reside in the non-scolling part of the dialog, everthing else in the
scrollable part.
