There is no default font size. > besides you've hard-coded the vertical size of xfce4-about to 270 pixels, why > can't you do the same with the horizontal? I didn't do that. I don't know who did, but I think that's semi-foolish. Vertical sizing for text is a lot easier to fudge, though, esp given that no one expects a decent-length document to fit on one 'screen' vertically. > as an aside, i've been meaning to report on the problems i've been having with > xfce settings dialogs on my eeepc (which has a max res of 640x480). Please open a new bug for that. This bug is for the about dialog. > most of > the dialogs assume a window height larger than 480, which makes a lot of stuff > unusable. We've talked about this a while ago... it might be possible to add scrolled windows to the dialogs so they can scroll, but dealing with screen heights less than 480 is a bit... retarded. > you aren't ahering to your own dogma there, why make a special case > about it here? Psh, don't give me this dogma crap.
