Another dialog issue
Comment 2 Heiko Tietze 2020-07-22 16:40:59 UTC
Let's take this as a bug.

The dialogs are equally sized
cui/uiconfig/ui/rotationtabpage.ui
cui/uiconfig/ui/possizetabpage.ui

And on a first glance I don't see an issue in the code but there must be something
cui/source/tabpages/transfrm.cxx

Comment 5 Kira Tubo 2023-09-21 22:51:27 UTC
Reproduced in current daily master build. Not reproducible in 3.3, so it is a regression. 

Funnily enough, I saw it was reproducible in 6.4.0.0.alpha1 but NOT in 7.0.3.1, so the regression must have been fixed at one point, then reintroduced
Comment 6 BogdanB 2023-10-08 16:39:13 UTC
I tried to bibisect with 7.1. Always BAD.
Comment 7 Kira Tubo 2023-10-09 19:27:55 UTC
Hmm, not sure what happened in Comment 5, but I am now able to reproduce in 7.0.3.1. 

Reproducible in:

Version: 5.4.0.0.alpha1 (x64)

Tricky to bibisect: on Linux, the issue is seen in oldest of 5.2, but not in latest of 5.0. A repo for 5.1 does not exist for Linux. On Windows, however, there is a slight difference in the field widths even in oldest of 4.3!

Comment 10 Heiko Tietze 2025-08-20 08:47:00 UTC
The different sizes make kind of sense with the additional lock control attached to the width/height edits. Shall we resolve this issue as NAB/INV?

Hmm, it's true that the newly-added lock control kind of solves this by retroactively giving a reason for the different widths.

Still, among the infinite number of tweakable UI things: in the Rotation tab, see how the input boxes for the Pivot Point positions and Rotation Angle are positioned. They are not in line horizontally (or at least the right edge should be in line), which gives an unprofessional feel.
Comment 12 Heiko Tietze 2025-10-08 06:15:55 UTC
The congruence of these two tabs has not benefited from the work on bug 167972.
