In the 10/05 build the enter master password dialog was fine. In the 10/08 build the text wraps,which causes the buttons to be cropped. I'm attaching two screenshots. Note that PSM code (including code for this dialog) has not changed in weeks.

Changing title to reflect the general nature of the problem. Changing component to Browser for triage.

Summary: regression on master password dialog: size is wrong, buttons are cropped → some dialogs are clipped at the bottom
Target Milestone: 2.1 → M1
Version: 2.1 → other
Adding PDT to the status whiteboard to raise the visibility of this bug. I am seeing this as well. (I'll try to add screen shots as I encounter clipped dialog boxes.) This is a visible regression that makes the application look very unpolished. The dialogs appear to function correctly. They cannot, however, be resized to eliminate the clipping at the bottom.

Some dialogs that are *not* clipped include the "Would you like Netscape 6 to be your default browser" dialog, and the mail server password dialog. Not sure why the difference.
This will be particularly bad in European languages that will take more space than English does, making the clipping even worse. I vote for fixing this in the release
this looks like a XUL issue, that we need to resolve pretty quickly for 094. --> hyatt

is this size to content fix needed for another bug so we may need to reopen another bug?
I own the other bug and it's still open: bug 92635.
It's open because it is not checked into the Trunk, not because it has not been checked into the 094 branch, right?
Right. As a matter of fact, it was only checked into the 0.9.4 branch. I will try to come up with a different "hack" for that bug, but I'd say we take this partial back-out (the other part of the checkin was valid) to fix this way more visible bug.

Verified on 10/10 WinNT branch build. I can't find any more clipped dialog boxes. Please file a new bug for specificd dialog boxes if you find any.
