Description Stefan Knorr (astron) 2013-06-16 13:40:41 UTC
Currently, it is possible to resize the Start Center window to 0*0. Of course, this entails cutting off UI elements in nasty ways.
It would make a lot of sense to limit that to 800*600, because this incidentally also matches the size of the Start Center background image.

Hi Stefan,
maybe a request for enhancement than an issue.

For me the minimum could be 320*75, leaving visible the entire menu.

I you are not agree with importance change please reset it.
Comment 2 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2013-11-27 21:07:58 UTC
With the new StartCenter, the minimum size can be smaller than 800*600. It should at least show the green left bar and one column of recent files.

Best regards. JBF

Can this be tackled before the 4.2 final release? Would make the startcenter appear a lot more professional.

I like the solution, limits to one thumbnail view when objects present, or limits to width of greetings text when thumbnail view is empty.

So of we can get the thumbnail scroll bar working again ( bug 72287 ) resolves substantive mab 4.2 issues with SC and TM.
