[Bug 1244670] Re: Window size 640x480

 

Good point ppp :) Don't worry, it's a less footprint way :D
We'll overwrite just one file ;)

1. Search your Gufw directory:
sudo find /usr/lib -name "utilsview.py"
You will get just ONE line like this:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gufw/view/utilsview.py

2. Download the file to overwrite:
wget http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~costales/gui-ufw/gufw-13.10/download/head:/utilsview.py-20130614164138-7cef6k5melxzcc92-281/utilsview.py

3. Overwrite it :)
sudo cp utilsview.py /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gufw/view/utilsview.py

4. Remove the current Gufw config file (it's save the window size):
sudo rm /etc/gufw/*

Done :) Run Gufw and send me your feedback please :D If anything is wrong, with screenshots please :)
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.
