[Bug 735061] Re: evolution setup and settings windows too large on netbook

 

I'm seeing the same issue on my notebook. The settings window is too
large to fit the screen. When you open it you cannot see the buttons at
the bottom. When you try to click on anything it kind of moves up so now
you can see the buttons at the bottom but not the upper part of the
window (see attached Screenshots).

In addition to that, menu and close, maximize, minimize buttons
disappear when clicking on anything within the window and only reappear
when switching to another window (it doesn't matter which one) and then
switching back (see 3rd screenshot).

Title:
  evolution setup and settings windows too large

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  When setting up Evolution Mail either for the first time or when editing settings, the windows are too large to be seen on my Netbook (1024*576 resolution in Natty). I was only able to configure everything by using Alt-Click-and-Drag.
  Also, when going through the initial setup in this manner, the page would sometimes blank and leave only the fields visible until a Alt-Click-and-Drag.
