Details

Build ID: 1999070614 (14-aug-99 presumably) Platform: Windows 98 (couldn't reproduce on linux) To reproduce: - Launch apprunner - Select Edit | Preferences Result: The Category list is too long for the allotted space. Everything after Disk Space or so is left off; occasionally, due to other bugs, the list will shrink in size and Composer will become visible. Expected result: The prefs window should be able to show you all available prefs.
these are all problems with bugs in the prefs UI, they go to matt

Matt, is this our bug or something for the XPToolkit folks?
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Has scrollbar now. Fixed.
Will this eventually be able to initially autosize to the content?

This will probably no do autoresize....will only have a scrollbar
Is this because of a layout deficiency or because you or someone else has something against it?
this is a UI problem. If the list is very large then you would get a dialog that would take up most of the screen. That is a bad thing ususally. It should not be a problem since we are going to have the nodes of the tree closed anyways so it usually will not have a scroll bar.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
I see the scrollbar now, thanks! 1999090908 build, NT.
Bulk move of all Pref UI component bugs to new Preferences component. Pref UI component will be deleted.
Component: Pref UI → Preferences
