Summary0002892: Hints window too small, overflowing and non resizable
Description

Before making a dcp, a window with hints is shown. However, it is fixed size, making it not so good when multiple hints are displayed as some are not visible. Also the text overflows and is partly not displayed (see screenhot). What should be done:

  1. the text should not overflow to the right so that it is partly not dislplayed
  2. the window should have vertical scrollbar
  3. the window should be resizable (so one can make it as big as one needs
  4. the window should be bigger when there is a lot of hints
  5. ideally the size of the window would be remembered (unless it is dynamically set so that it always fits all content)

This is on Kubuntu 22.04, multimonitor setup, still running X, KDE 5.27 and dom version is actually 2.16.97 but that cannot be set here.

@carl there is already a vertical scroll bar (when needed) on Linux - check on Windows.

This is on Linux. I think it was not rendered then, or I do not see it in the screenshot.

Ha, sorry! I glanced at the image and thought it was Windows. I will check. On Fedora/gnome the scrollbar is hidden after a while and only shown when you move the mouse over to the right-hand side of the list (or scroll with a touchpad).

do check:-). However i think it would be prefereable if tehre were no scrollbars, especially horizontal ones are really annoying for text.
