minor window layout issue
« on: October 18, 2007, 03:50 PM »
Fun little program, great functionality and collection of books. Just one minor window layout issue: the buttons and "fortune wikipedia" link at the bottom of the window are partly clipped by the window border; there is no white/clear space around them it seems (see attachment).

thanks for the report jlammens -- looks like i need to tweak the display a bit for some situations.
can you tell me what version of windows you are running.. and do you know if you have "Large Fonts" enabled?

I'm running Windows XP SP2, and I don't have large fonts enabled (see attachments).

I also noticed that the font selection gets undone now and then, and the display font reverts to something looking a bit ugly. This happens on Vista (I don't think I have noticed the same issue on XP, but I couldn't swear on it).
