[Freeciv-Dev] (PR#12825) freeciv doesn't work on small-resolution displays
URL: http://bugs.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=12825 [cproc - Sat Feb 28 21:54:33 2009]: something that makes me wonder: when I decrease the height of the window, there's a certain limit where the height cannot be decreased anymore. One part that defines this limit is a certain minimum height of the map and of the widgets on the left side, that's ok. But the message pane doesn't seem to have such a minimum height - I can shrink it down to zero with the pane separator. And when I do this, at the same time the upper pane increases its height again, so now it should be possible to decrease the window height even more until the upper pane has reached its minimum height again. But for some reason that's not possible? I think this just due to how the widget size requisition/ allocation code is implemented in gtk, in particular for the paned widget. When widgets are packed into the panes the programmar can specify whether they are allowed to be shrunk below their requisition, which is what allows you to resize the message pane below its requested height (if the top part was packed with those parameters too, you could also move the pane separator up through the top widgets beyond their requested height; I tried altering the code to allow this but it really just resulted in ugly overlap effects). Resizing the window cannot make the area inside the panes shrink because the paned widget is telling the window that it wants the whole area, i.e. since the user moved the separator to increase the total height of the paned widget. If the above is confusing and you still want to try to understand what is going on, there is the free gnome programming book online with a chapter discussing how gtk widget size allocation works: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/GGAD/sec-containers.html --- 本で読んだから、本当だろうね。 ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

URL: http://bugs.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=12825 [book - Mo 10. Nov 2008, 01:16:10]: [guest - Sun Nov 09 12:02:10 2008]: This is still an issue. A lot of netbooks have a 1024x600 resolution on which freeciv is unplayable. Please consider making the interface work on those screens. Could you be more specific about what makes it unplayable, for example what client you are using and what parts of the interface do not fit correctly. I'm not the guest above, but i have the same problem: If I want to start a new game there is a dialog where i can configure my opponents and set game parameters. The dialog buttons are not reachable with 600 pixels height. On the other hand on my Nokia N800 with 800x480 px resolution there is a good freeciv port... Are there special configuration files or parameter i can use to solfe this issue? Or is it just that the map view in the gtk client cannot be resized less than a certain height and width? This I only would know if i start the game :) Btw. how i can create an account for this bug tracker?

Are there special configuration files or parameter i can use to solfe this issue? No, the basic widget layout is hard-coded in the program. Alright, I will assume that this is a problem with the gtk version, specifically that the way the widgets are packed and/or set to minimum sizes prevents the entire window from being resized down to fit on your display. I'll see about reworking the gui layout code so that resizing is at least possible. In the meantime you could try the sdl gui and play with its video options to see if you can make the game playable on your display. Btw. how i can create an account for this bug tracker? That's only really useful if you plan on handling bug reports or submitting sizable contributions (and I do not have access to grant you the priveleges anyway).
