[Bug 1244670] Re: Window size 640x480

 

Hi!
I think this problem is fixed.
Could you try please? :) In a Terminal copy and paste this command:
sudo rm /etc/gufw/* ; sudo apt-get purge gufw ; sudo apt-get install ufw python-netifaces gir1.2-webkit-3.0 gir1.2-gtk-3.0 gnome-icon-theme-symbolic policykit-1 python-gobject python-distutils-extra bzr ; bzr branch lp:gui-ufw ; cd gui-ufw ; sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/usr

This will remove the current config file, remove gufw and install from the code.
Then just run Gufw again and it has to be small for your screen.
If the screen has or less 480px, the windows will be 440px.
If the screen has 600px or less, the window will be 550px.
Why those heights? Because I can't control the panel and the window decoration :)

I think this will works in all cases :D
Thanks for your feedback ppp! Cheers!

Title:
  Window size 640x480

Status in Gufw:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  My netbook, I use up and now, has a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.

  I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 and found out your gufw app is now bigger
  that my screen height. Completely unusable. Same shit as Windows 8
  requirements.

  Can you please fix the height, so that it fits back again?

  Good software should work with 640x480 VGA resolution. Never, ever
  make a unresizeable dialog that is bigger than 640x480 pixels. Allow
  users to resize down at least to 640x480. Take into consideration also
  the window manager title head and border.

  How on the Earth you come with the idea to make the dialog so big? In
  your web page screenshot it looks so small and nice.

  Other than this, a nice app.
