Re: [Bug 1071712] Re: Ubiquity (when the slideshow comes) is too small and has scrollbars

 

The issue in the other bug is not this issue.

The problem in the slideshow is that there are scrollbars in the slideshow
because the text is simply too long, because of translations.

If you want to reproduce this problem, just install Ubuntu 12.x on a
1366x786 screen. Should be reproducable. I can't attach a screenshot
because there were error with the live system that couldn't connect to the
usb stick.

Title:
  Ubiquity (when the slideshow comes) is too small and has scrollbars

Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have tested ubiquity (in the slideshow) in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and
  Ubuntu 12.10. I choose the German language. In the slideshow there are
  scrollbars. I can't attach a screenshot because for me it was not
  possible to move them on a usb stick.

  The problem is that you can fix this bug if you simply for example
  shorten the translated text. But this idea is not good. Then every
  translation in other languages must be also shortened perhaps,. I
  personally think and there the installer should be bigger and then
  there would be enough place.

  I use a laptop with a screen resolution of 1366 x 768.

  I'm quite sure that this can happen with other languages.

  I don't know what is possible, but this wouldn't happen if the
  installer window would be bigger like in openSUSE or in Fedora. This
  seems to be possible.

  If you need more information I'll give you that, but I can't give you
  screenshots. I'm sorry.
