Priority: medium Bug ID: 80319 Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: Truncated text in Start Center and minimum size lock-in Severity: minor Classification: Unclassified OS: Windows (All) Reporter: kl...@yopmail.com Hardware: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Version: unspecified Component: UI Product: LibreOffice This is a follow-up to Bug 73605 and may affect all localizations. This code does not generally work and has a side-effect (though other code might cause this, too): http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=840e7f004354ebe1239b9271dd758839c477ca7c There are common situations, where the user can circumvent the minimal window width to sufficiently display the text in the Start Center. Possibility #1: step 1: Make sure to have at least one recent document step 2: Resize the window to minimal width step 3: Delete it/them or clear the list Now the second line will likely be truncated. Possibility #2: step 1: Open a LibreOffice program not from Start Center step 2: Resize to sufficiently small width and height step 3: Retreat to Start Center with Ctrl+W or File -> Close No minimal size applied. Now to the lock-in. Any time the Start Center has been opened, a minimal size is carried over to all LibreOffice programs in the current session. As far as I can tell, there are three of these sizes. Size #1 (the smallest): step 1: Boot soffice.exe with at least one recent document step 2: Resize height to the minimum This should swallow a chunk of Base Database. Size #2: step 1: Make sure to have at least one recent document and open one step 2: Retreat to Start Center with Ctrl+W or File -> Close step 3: Click once on one the of the four window borders to resize Size #3: Like size #2 but with a cleared list. This is the biggest. Suggestion: A. The Start Center should start with the necessary width and height to supply all contents (including one recent document with scroll-bar or welcome text). B. The welcome text should adapt. C. The set minimum size should not be carried over to the other programs, 'cause someone might want to work in a very small window in some cases. D. A minimum size should also not be applied to one of the programs, when resizing after the program was started from the Start Center. I might have overlooked a case and missed a detail. This applies to 4.3 RC 1 and XP. Please try it on the other OS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
