There is a large unused space in the picture dialogue box.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open WRITER
2. Insert any picture (INSERT -> IMAGE -> FROM FILE)
3. Make a right mouse click on the picture and go to PICTURE -> tab TYPE

Result:
There is a large unused space between the sections Size and Position.

Reproducible with LO 4.3.3.2, Win 8.1.

screenshot 4.2.x vs 4.3.x

confirmed under Win7x64
Image option window is bigger in 4.3.x and has that gap size and position

see comparative screenshot between 4.2.0 and 4.3.3
I see the same thing in 4.2.6 and 4.3.0
hence it's a 4.3.x regression

CCing Caolán, since I’ve tried to fix this and didn’t know how :-/

Either the Macro or Background tabs seem to be the culprits of over-stretching the rest of tab pages.

Its the event assignment page, hard-coded pixel heights/widths have made their way into the .ui file

Comment 7 Caolán McNamara 2014-11-15 17:42:57 UTC
The bitmap was a little high too, though it was mostly the event assigner, reworked the bitmap to be a little less tall and wide as well.

Backported to 4-3 as 298ca08e. Thanks!
