File format combobox width in DDS save dialog

[pavlik1307]

Is it possible to make this combobox a little bit wider? Some entries in some languages don't fit into the combobox.

The width of the dialog controls is fixed for all save plugins. But terms like 'unsigned' could be abbreviated.

The 'unsigned' and 'signed' terms could be replaced with UNORM and SNORM, which are the technical terms used by the underlying DXGI formats.

 

Now that I think about it, I am not sure if 'Unsigned', 'Signed' and 'Float' should be translated at all.

Those are technical terms that describe how the underlying DXGI format stores pixel data.

Although it may be tricky to exclude 'Float' from the auto-translation.

 

There have also been previous cases of  'Unsigned' and 'Signed' being mistranslated:

I may be able to widen it automatically -- I do that in other places, not sure why it's not being done here

One issue is the width of the popup. The other one the overall width of the control panel.

I'm also having some issues with ColorWheel control when used with Reset button.

 

(Also , there are some unwanted pixels drawn right next to the bars)

@otuncelli, The color wheel's layout isn't tested for use in FileTypes. What I need to do is what @midora's is hinting toward, which is make the width of the SaveConfigWidget dynamic / resizable.

 

For now though, for 4.3.8, we will at least get unabbreviated text within the dropdown list. Thankfully I already had code elsewhere in the app that was doing the same thing.
