Description Forgotten User 55iwwMllzz 2006-03-14 11:57:01 UTC
YaST's /etc/sysconfig editor has an usability problem. When we descend the tree structure, soon the item names are right trimmed because the frame is too narrow (see attached screenshot). The annoying thing is that the frame has a fixed width, no matter the size of the whole window. And it cannot be resized like, for example, the table of contents frame of Acrobat Reader. So the user needs to constantly scroll horizontally.

No, we can't do that. This was the price paid for using that underlying YQWizard widget at all.
