Considering that this kind of thing is a simply poor decision on the part of a programmer/developer, I believe it should be fixed for 12.04 LTS.
Most GUI systems I have used default to full control of the widget window. I believe that this and similar sins of omission such as the same problem with alacarte should be assigned to someone as an urgent ongoing problem. This affects everyone who, like me, has difficulty with the tiny default font sizes. It is a fairly simple thing for me to increase my font size, but not very helpful if the widgets are insensitive to this issue. On the internationalization front, this kind of thing must be very bad for users whose languges are more verbose than English. Please pass this to the upstream developers. I think this is just a matter of carelessness, and they need to become more aware of the user community. The idea of casting pearls before swine is becoming endemic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936257 Title: the system settings grid shouldn't use a fixed geometry To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/936257/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
