All dialog windows have incorrect size. It was in 0.9.2 and it's now in 0.9.4. It's really critical, for example I cannot edit preferences at all. If this information is not enough - I can email aditional information or screenshots. Thanks.

Sorry, I haven't seen your question. I've tried to delete localstore.rdf and also created new profile. There is absolutely no effect. Also I've tried to change interface scheme, but it doesn't matter...

Are you running any sort of OS/2 utilities that modify your desktop? Also, it looks like you are using System VIO as your OS/2 font. Is this correct? What size System VIO?
OK, I found the source of this one. It happens if you use System VIO as your Window Text font on the OS/2 Scheme Palette. Probably has to do with the fact that System VIO has very poor font metrics. Assigning to Javier

Summary: All dialogs are broken in 0.9.2-0.9.4 → Using System VIO for OS/2 Window Text causes dialog problems
Yes, everything right. I don't use any WPS enhancer and system default font is "System VIO" with size 3.
By the way, IBM Web Browser (IBM's builds of mozilla) never had this problem, all dialogs appeared as they should, even with <System VIO> font.
After further investigation, we have determined that this is a cross platform problem having to do with small fonts. It has been reported as 86478. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 86478 ***
