Description Ken Frank 2003-05-20 23:46:53 UTC
Using pseudo localized product, with each message
or label
having additional multibyte text, and using
-fontsize 16 option,
running in Chinese locale,

3 of the items on the junit window, invoked
from tools->junit>new, dont show their label
fully - they are the items with the 3 dots (...)
Attachment will be provided if this issue can be
shown
clearly or more description will be provided here
if not.

Chinese localization will use a larger font than
default
one now used so these issues will be more visible
to them,
but this can also be viewed as a general or a11y
issue
since may be visible to users in english locale
who use larger
fonts.

Assumption is that user should be able to see
all items in a given window when it appears and
should
not need to resize it to see those things.

That is, the UI area or window should dynamically
resize itself
to show the needed contents.
(this does not apply to contents of textfields,
areas controlled
by scrollbars or vertical resizing controls like
in options windTo emulate in non multibyte locale
without multibyte
in messages or longer messages, you may need to
run
with fontsize 18 or 20 to see what we are seeing
with
fontsize 16. Even with larger sizes, it may not be
seen exactly
the same due to the effect of multibyte and longer
strings.

This issue is marked with the FONTSIZE keywork;
bugs so marked
will not appear on quality dashboards and will not
need
to be waived or fixed for English FCS products of
this release.

For Netbeans issues, this will be marked as
blocking 33246.


(( What about the popdown that lists the
directories to choose - should the full
path of any directories be shown or is it
ok if not all of it shows - that is an open
question))
