Unable to resize PB IDE?

Post by Kukulkan »

Hi,

I'm runnding the most recent version of PB for Linux on my Ubuntu 11.04 (32 bit). I somewhat maximized the IDE but now I'm not able to scale it any smaller. I can not get the PB window any smaller, no matter if I switch from maximized to normal or back.

I'm only able to resize by manually editing the .purebasic/purebasic.prefs file at

Code: Select all

[Editor]
IsWindowMaximized = 0
X = 0
Y = 25
Width = 1680
Height = 1118
Is this a known bug?

It happened to me occasionally. After switching projects and working with them, it disappears again. Can't say what triggers or fixes it exactly.

I think there is some issue with VMWare, that is resizing my Linux screen sometimes (if I use fullscreen virtual machine).

Happens to me all the time. Not a VMWare problem.

Hi,

I have the same problem here with Fedora 16 (64-bit). The IDE window cannot be resized smaller after the first compilation. Enlargement is still possible.

Best regards

Hi,

Just tried this on Linux Mint 10 64bit with PB Version 4.60.

I get the same result as uwekel.

I can resize the window to start with, but after first compile the minimum size becomes fixed and I can no longer make the window smaller than the size it was when I first compiled.
Regards

Andy

Hello everyone,

I have the same problem with LinuxMint 12 x64 + Gnome-Shell.

Edit : I forget mention that I currently use the 4.51 version of the IDE.

Best regards.
