Fixed-size, unscrollable windows also create problems for people who are using smaller or lower-resolution screens (anything from old hardware to mobile devices) - it's not just for the sake of virtualization that they should be fixed. And modal dialogs create usability problems for everyone, of course. In some cases, the fix for window size is to reduce preference bloat or change the interaction paradigm, if a scrolling window would cause confusion or is a symptom of a larger problem. Layout may also need to be changed so windows scroll in only one direction instead of two. So there is some value in reporting such bugs against the application, rather than trying to find a general solution. Though it does seem tempting to have e.g. metacity force scroll bars on windows that are too big to fit on the screen, as a stopgap measure. If you find it overwhelming to file so many bugs at once, then take it one bug at a time - start with the situations you encounter most frequently, or a particular frequently used application. Perhaps Fedora should have a Small Screen Test Day, to find usability problems when everyone dials down their screen resolution. -B. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
