504042 - Return receipts button cut off when preferences first opened -> Advanced

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Gary Kwong [:gkw] [:nth10sd] (NOT official MoCo now)]

Attachment: screenshot

Return receipts button is cut off when preferences is first opened and Advanced tab is switched to. Switching to other subtabs then back to Advanced->General will get back the full button, but whenever the preferences window is closed then re-opened, the button is cut off again.

Yes, this is definitely something that should be fixed.

I think I spotted something similar in the Account Setting dialog as well (I'll open that as a separate bug if I run into it again).

Still haven't quite figured out where to fix this, but I'll look into it!

I'm unable to reproduce this on Vista, is this using XP?

mkmelin, clarkbw: do you guys want to review this one?

There is a big white area left on the right, but I think this ok, because we're going to get a spam icon in there, and it works well in the Addons window already.

phil: I wasn't able to reproduce this on Windows (Vista), so I couldn't fix that. See comment #6.

Any other Windows (Vista or XP) users running into this?

comment 2. That is the way mine looks as well.

Maybe this is only in classic desktop.
