Window is too large for a small screen

Open eirnym opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

I have a laptop, MBA 14" and window is too large for it. Could you please set at least fully visible if screen is small enough?

After a tricky resize, everything is usable

Check here the default window size: https://github.com/timrid/construct-editor/blob/b4c63dcea1a057cbcc7106b2d58c8bb4d8503e3b/construct_editor/main.py#L58

You can derive that class in your main.

Do you suggest "download an app to do the thing you need. Edit the app, because it doesn't fit on your screen"? If yes, this is an absurd suggestion.

My proposition: make window to be scaled to fit the screen in the main code itself.

In my opinion this product was designed as a powerful framework of construct-based widgets for developers, rather than a complete end-user app. The main appears to me a reference sample, which can be easily adapted to suit specific needs. In any case, I do not represent the author's concept and in my previous post I was just trying to help.

Your precious post was "we won't touch a product because you're using a wrong computer".

I don't like the attitude.
