459046 - Toolbar icons spaced too far apart in fy-NL Shredder Alpha 3 build

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

Attachment: 1440 horizontal pixel width

So while testing Alpha 3 l10n, I chanced upon this one in the fy-NL build. The toolbar buttons are spaced amazingly far apart. Even at the 1440x900 resolution, the throbber icon at the right is not shown in full.

(note the stop icon, there's too much space to the left and right!)

I only noticed this for the delete button in the hu and nl Shredder a3 builds.
In three other builds that I tested (id, nb-NO, nn-NO), it was still noticeable, but not nearly as severe.

Oh, forgot to mention that I tested on Win XP.

The button text for the "Delete" button changes to "Undelete" when you select a deleted message in "Just mark it as deleted" mode for IMAP.

"Undelete" is translated as "Fuortsmiten ûngedien meitsje" in fy-NL, hence the wide button.

I have changed the localization of "Undelete" to "Tebeksette" instead of "Fuortsmiten ûngedien meitsje".
Now the button appears OK.
I still think the description of the undelete button should not affect the size of the delete button.
Anyway, other localizers should update their localization if they see the same wide button.

wanted‑thunderbird3-, the issue was resolved by not using a super long label, and if this is at all a bug it should be in some core component.

Ludovic -- it'll be great if you could check whether this is still a bug with TB 3 Beta 2 fy-NL builds.

As stated in comment #4 it is no longer a problem in fy-NL, since I changed the localization, but that actually is a workaround of course.

In this case then - Resolving WFM.
