Description Pavel Rehak 2006-06-21 09:20:39 UTC 
This umbrella issue covers all issues found during i18n testing
that are related to resize/font troubles:
-dialogs aren't visible
-dialogs are visible only partially with no chance to be read
-dialogs aren't accessible because of font size
etc

comment on these kind of issues in general

they are not limited to running in other locales using translated or
pseudo translated messages but can show even when running in en or 
other locales without any translated message  - when using a larger fontsize
via --fontsize option.

So that, for some issue seen using pseudo localized env, one might need to run
at an even larger fontsize to have it be seen in a non localized env, or it might
now show at all; seems to be function of msg/label length, platform, monitor size,
ui component type.

but even if not seen in non localized situation, its still a problem
for localized, and the fontsizes used, 14, 16, 18 or even 20, have been
found to be reasonable sizes that might be used.
