I started to test your version 3.1.0 b22 and I’ve seen a curious behaviour in Kleopatra:
I use a notebook with a screen resolution of 1024x600 pixels, so your kleopatra->notepad window is wider than my screen. When you open the kleopatra window you can resize, but when you then open the notepad window you can’t make narrower. Then when you close, nor the kleopatra window can’t be narrower. Vertical size is OK. Kleopatra needs to be exited to return to resizable window.
I think that this behaviour is easy to reproduce. I hope to be good described! ( English is not my normal language!)
That is indeed a small resolution :-). The Notepad has some minimum sizes to allow the text area to contain a standard PGP Message without linebreaks together with the recipient layout. I’ll have to look into the layout some more about how I can improve that.
I might check for the resolution and on smaller resolutions make the notepad show either the text area or the recipients, instead of both.
That you can’t resize the window when closing the notepad should be easily fixable, I think I know the reason for that. Had not really noticed that as my window is usually larger then the minimum size.
I’ve tried around with collapsing the splitter on smaller resolutions but it did not feel right. I now changed it to use a Tab Layout on any resolution.
As you reported, the splitter layout did not really work for small screen
resolutions. And in general it is nicer to have a very wide recipient selection layout.
Although this means an extra click for most users the layout improvement is probably worth it.
Do you know any freeware software for win7 able to record screens like this you have used in Linux? Could be useful for reporting bugs.
Do you prefer to report bugs to any other site?
I am not 100% sure if I understand the question perfectly, but if the intent is to capture an image of the screen, then one [free] software which works very well is PRINTSCREEN, by Gadwin Systems. https://gadwin.com/
Hope this helps.
