44607 - Filter/Search UI: resize wider doesn't adjust criteria fields

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

Using jul5 commecial build on linux rh6.0
Not a problem using NT 4.0
Can't resize the dialogs on Mac OS 9.0


When you resize the search dialog or the filter rules dialog to be wider or
narrower, the criteria fields don't adjust and either replicate parts of other
fields (resize wider) or overlap each other (resize narrower).  This doesn't go
away with another resize.

1.  Go to mail window. Search|Search Mail.
2.  Select Subject Doesn't Contain for the criteria dropdowns.
3.  Make the dialog wider.
    Result:  Notice parts of the "Doesn't Contain" text appear in duplicate to
the right of the original dropdown location and/or the dropdown's widget is
duplicated.
4.  Make the dialog narrower.
    Result:  Text field is flush against or overlaps the dropdown to its left.
5.  Repeat this to various widths.
    Results:  Display gets weird.

Although resizing the dialog again doesn't clear the display mess, reselecting
the criteria fields does.

I'll bet this goes away by beta3.

Tried this many times, wider, narrower... The only thing that happens is that
the popupmenus' width are changing.

Worksforme on build 2001071803, resolving as such.

themes.
