[Bug 1542075] [NEW] viewfinder should re-size to fit window

 

Public bug reported:

in windowed mode, the viewfinder is currently fills the screen in the
vertical orientation. If the window is made smaller the controls
incorrectly rotate like the app thinks it's in landscape mode and bottom
edge moves to the right.

Lets discuss what to do here, but some options:

1) resizing the window shouldn't change where the controls are located or the orientation
2) resizing should make the viewfinder fill the available space. Should it use the largest vertical or horizontal dimension, or be fixed to the physical orientation of the phone?
3) Should we not allow window resizing and instead lock the window size to the actual size of the viewfinder?
4) If the phone is rotated, should the window size automatically change to reflect the phone orientation?
