kreemoweet Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I just saw a post here that contained a screenshot of paint.net 4.3.10, with a Tools window title that actually said "Tools". For years now, all I've gotten is a miserable "T.." for a title. The online documentation shows a Tools window title of "To...". Just what is the secret of obtaining a non-truncated title up there? Why does that window have to be so darn skinny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Maybe if @Rick Brewster shortened it to "Tool" instead of "Tools" it might fit without the "..." showing up. Of course, that won't fix other languages... but, still... might be nice.

Rick Brewster Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'd like to be able to tell Windows to draw the stupidly large "X" button smaller, but I'm not sure that's possible. Otherwise, solving this would require custom drawing of the non-client region (the "window chrome"). And that's a complicated, dangerous adventure. The main window does this and it's been a massive hassle over the years. Or I could have the window be declared as not having a frame at all, which would be easier, but it would be tricky to get things to look and act correctly (esp. any animations). So it's just not high on the priority list of things when evaluating bang-for-buck.

midora Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Or think about to change the width of the Tools panel to match the width of the History or Layer panel. Or be radical and do it for all panels 😉 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
