#3478 closed enhancement (fixed)

[PATCH] Remember size of download dialog

Reported by: bilbo Owned by: team
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Core Version: latest
Keywords: Cc:

Description

The size of download dialog window is not remembered and the default size is too small - height of the displayed slippy map is quite small for comfortable navigation.

The size should be remembered, so I don't have to resize the dialog almost every time I want to download some data from OSM.

Shouldn't such a feature be available in the ExtendedDialog or are there reasons for not including it there? I can supply a patch, but Stöcker warned me of edit wars, do I though I'd ask :)

comment:3 by Gubaer, 15 years ago

Go ahead, I like the idea.

Not working properly for me. If I maximise the window, the next time it has reverted to the default size. Works only if I change the window size but don't maximise it (F12 KDE).

Remembering maximized state of popup dialogs would be a bad idea. Resize dialog normally instead.

comment:9 by Nikerabbit, 15 years ago

Why would it be a bad idea?

comment:10 by stoecker, 15 years ago

Because software should never start with options which are hard to change or understand for novice users. A novice will not know that the software remembers most dialog sizes, so when he clicks ONCE on maximize, he will get maximized (and thus blocking) dialogs for a very long time. This is acceptable for the main application, but not for any subwindow within. Professional users can reach same goal by resizing the window, so no harm done to them either.
