Using classic theme. Chatzilla preferences window is resizable, so it will be a good idea to apply this to Mozilla prefs window, too.

Using a spanish translation. May occur with other translations too.

Duplicate of bug 93400. The size was fixed in bug 79948, mainly I think because a variable size would provoke larger and larger and more and more contents to be placed into it - "you can resize it if it does not fit". _Because_ it is fixed, translators know exactly how much text they can place into it before causing problems, so you might want to contact the Spanish translators about this. However, I noticed you have a non-default font, maybe this is one is wider and causes the problem, so you might try using the default font... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 93400 ***

I still think that this window, so-called "dialog", MUST BE resizable. That options text cannot be more resumed, because it will become too confuse. Look at Chatzilla prefs dialog, it is resizable, and has scrollbars too. Why not implement this in AppSuite too? Adding a scrollbar to main content pane will also help, because sometimes we need to locate/edit "strange things" in Mozilla. Yup, i'm using a non-standard font, but Comic Sans MS isn't too wide. The Mac default font is wider than my font.

(In reply to comment #3) > I still think that this window, so-called "dialog", MUST BE resizable. Well, this bug here is a duplicate. You can look at the original bug or better at bug 79948 which removed resizing. I guess everything was already said there... > Chatzilla prefs dialog, it is resizable, and has scrollbars too. Umm... Chatzilla prefs are part of the Suite prefs, so how should it be resizable?? > Adding a scrollbar to main content pane will also help, because sometimes we > need to locate/edit "strange things" in Mozilla. Yup, i'm using a non-standard > font, but Comic Sans MS isn't too wide. Hmm... maybe it's the _height_: I just compared with default font and even the first few lines (where there is no difference in line numbers between Spanish and English version) need more vertical space with your font, so please try default. However, this will not suffice, I fear: two additional lines are too many... maybe translators do find a shorter text for the labels...

Since version 0.9.5x, Chatzilla has a independent and resizable properties window. And not, option texts can't be shorter (unless implementing tooltips for detail that things)

Just for the record, localizers can increase the size of the pref window, just take a look at these files: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpfe/components/prefwindow/resources/locale/en-US/mac/platformPrefOverlay.dtd#11 http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpfe/components/prefwindow/resources/locale/en-US/unix/platformPrefOverlay.dtd#11 http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpfe/components/prefwindow/resources/locale/en-US/win/platformPrefOverlay.dtd#19
