using pseudo localized nb, in ja locale, also at 14 pt font on solaris - see a resize issue in application actions edit window basic section - see attached gif the outline of the small icon overwrites the label of small icon and also the text of the word small in that small icon part does not show completely likewise the text of word large in the large icon outline does not show completely. I realize that with the prefix and suffix that it increases the words small and large by a lot, but some translations of euro langs do increase english by up to 30% - even though in this case its more than that, it can show that perhaps dynamic resizing of these ui areas is not being done and that can usually solve the situation.

*** Issue 111343 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
This is fixed now. I have changed the alignment of the 'small icon' dashed rectangle button to match the large icon. This will fix problems when the text in a different language is larger. For the actual 'large' and 'small' text inside of the dashed rectangle buttons, that text will have to be small enough to fit there. Those are non-resizable buttons that must always be that size. The text can be omitted if it is too big, however. It's not essential.
but we can't guarantee what the size of the text inside the boxes will be; it depends on length of the words in various locales and perhaps also fontsize being used by user. if the boxes are a kind of swing object, then I think by use of layout managers, dynamic resizing could happen for whats inside the boxes. ken.frank@sun.com
as to the dashed buttons of each icon and not showing all of the text with pseudo localized, at with larger fonts, it seems this should be reopened unless its really not important what those labels say. see previous comment on that perhaps the dashed box could be some ui object that could be resizable. but am guessing that text is important or else would not be there. that is, is the text inside the dashed lines meant to be seen anywhere ? please advise. ken.frank@sun.com
please reply to last comments as I think this might need to reopened, but want to be clear about it. ken.frank@sun.com
There are two dashed rectangle boxes. The text inside those boxes simply indicates whether they are for the small or large icons. Since there are already labels next to them on the left the text inside the boxes is not essential. We could simply remove it if desired.
if the internal images inside the dashed lines can be removed from the boxes without loss of clarity for user, then this could be best approach. let me know if separate issue is needed. ken.frank@sun.com
The text inside the dashed rectangles should be removed because it is not easily interntionalizable, and it is also redundant.
the text inside the dashed rect is removed now
