** Summary changed:

- a big part of many dialogs go outside of the vertical area of the screen on netbooks
+ a big part of many dialogs go outside of the vertical area of the screen on low resolution displays

** Tags added: regression-release

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: compiz
  
  This is a regression in compiz from Maverick as this was not a problem
  in Maverick.
  
  when you open the "Open" dialog in chromium its vertical height is so
  much that much of it goes outside of the screen. In the same way when
  you start gimp for the first time on a netbook the its toolbars go
  outside the screen height even they can be resized to reduce their
  height. I have attached a few screenshots for example.
  
+ This happens with resolutions with height less than or equal to 800px
+ (and maybe other resolutions too).
