When opening gitk in a multi-monitor setup with different resolutions, the resize factor causes the first columns of the layout get bigger and bigger while the other columns (author, date in upper pane, file list in lower pane) shrink to a minimum size. The following setup triggers the problem on Fedora 38/Gnome 44: * primary screen 1 has a FHD resolution (1920x1080) * secondary screen 2 has a QHD resolution (2560x1440) Every time gitk opens at screen 2, the resize is triggered and the columns are shifted 1.33x to the right (2560/1920 = 1.33). After multiple rounds of closing/opening gitk, the columns are at their minimum size and the contents are not visible or only a minimum is visible. The following patches are two approaches to fix the problem. Maybe the hard-coded values could be variables, this is a first shot to solve the problem.
