[Bug 713343] New: YaST printer help screen is too small (ncurses)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=713343 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=713343#c0 Summary: YaST printer help screen is too small (ncurses) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gp@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Product Management Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=446809) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=446809) Screenshot Invoking the help screen from within the YaST printer module when in text mode (ncurses) leads to a pop up which is really too small and underutilizes the screen estate that's available. Might be good to address this for SLE 11 SP2 as well if the module is being touched there. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The size of the help popup is set somewhere in the base YaST system. Therefore I am not the right assignee for such issues so that I re-assign it back to the default assignee of YaST bugs. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Should we make help window size adjustable? Or just wider by default (at least for nurses)? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But adjustable by the user for nurses should help. It seems the help window size is fixed for nurses i.e. in ncurses it is the same size regardless how big the base text terminal window (e.g. xterm) is. Perhaps it is possible in ncurses to have a help window size which is e.g. 80% of the size of the base text terminal window? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I had a look at the code but I didn't find a possibility to get the size of the topmost dialog to be able to set the popup size related this size (e.g. 80% of the terminal window).
