| maco | mhall119: justin doesn't make sense to me. what the crack does his 4GB of ram (which i have too btw) and cpu have to do with vertical screen real estate? | 22:07 |
| mhall119 | maco: it seemed odd to me too | 22:16 |
| maco | this is my highest resolution laptop though | 22:16 |
| maco | it has 32 more vertical pixels than my netbook | 22:16 |
| mhall119 | I've noticed a lot of apps make assumptions on vertical space | 22:16 |
| maco | which has 56 more horizontal pixels | 22:16 |
| mhall119 | especially when using my 701 | 22:16 |
| maco | or forget about it | 22:16 |
| maco | because ok fine if you have 1900x1200 then maybe you'll get 4 or 5 accounts to show before it hits the bottom and fails to scroll | 22:17 |
| maco | what if you want a 6th account? | 22:17 |
| mhall119 | I agree it's a valid bug | 22:17 |
| maco | choqok wouldn't have a problem with number of accounts. it has tabs and you can scroll the tabs, but then choqok crashes *all the time* | 22:18 |
| mhall119 | gwibber is probably using some fancy widget for it's drop-downs that doesn't take vertical space into account | 22:18 |
| mhall119 | I've had other problems with it's dropdowns in the past | 22:18 |
| mhall119 | like, them not being attached to the window that triggered them | 22:19 |
| maco | im a bit surprised no gwibber people said anything on that bug report in the year it's been open | 22:19 |
| maco | year and a bit i guess really... it was reported in karmic | 22:19 |
| mhall119 | probably doesn't effect enough people | 22:19 |
| mhall119 | I'm pulling the source code right now | 22:20 |
| mhall119 | there's a lot of webkit in gwibber for UI stuff, which doesn't always work as well as GTK stuff does | 22:21 |
| maco | hm i wonder what that does to a11y testing | 22:21 |
| mhall119 | I can guess | 22:22 |
| mhall119 | ew, the dropdown is actually a GTKWindow | 22:33 |
| mhall119 | maco: what's that bug again? | 22:53 |
| mhall119 | nvm, found it | 22:55 |
| mhall119 | maco: https://code.launchpad.net/~mhall119/gwibber/fixes-530934 | 22:55 |
| mhall119 | it's not pretty, but it's a start | 22:55 |
| mhall119 | maco: if you wouldn't mind testing that and let me know how it works on your screen | 23:00 |
| mhall119 | you can just bzr branch it, then run ./bin/gwibber | 23:00 |
| mhall119 | the size is hard-coded, I need to figure out how to make it dynamic before I propose for merging | 23:13 |
