[Bug 811208] Re: Shell is not resizable, too big for small screens

 

Dylan, that's true that the window grows a scrollbar when the screen is
too narrow, but the problem remains that you can't resize the window
yourself. So, if you prefer to have a wide control center instead of a
tall one with scrollbars, you just can't. This is a relatively easy
feature to add, and almost all applications are resizable, so I don't
see why this one couldn't. To be perfect, it should event save its size
when exiting, like most apps.

Title:
  Shell is not resizable, too big for small screens

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  With Ubuntu's patches to Gnome Control Center, lots of new sections
  are being added. This has reached the point where the main window is
  quite tall. It is now 675x643 pixels, which is too big for some
  smaller netbooks (like the 1024x600 Dell Mini 10). To resolve this,
  the shell should be resizable and offer a vertical scrollbar.
