Description Curtis d'Entremont CLA 2005-07-26 18:46:26 EDT
- In the resource perspective, right click in the navigator and select Import ->
External Features. Note the description of the wizard at the top, and that it
wraps. Also note the width of the dialog. Select any feature and finish the import.
- Open the import wizard again in the same way. Note the wizard dialog is now
wider, and the text no longer wraps. It is adjusting itself to the description
length.

This isn't so bad for the eclipse wizards, but I have a wizard that requires a
long description, and when I open it on the second time, the dialog takes up the
width of my screen, which looks very wrong. It should always open the same size
as the original size.

I can only assume this affects the export wizards in the same way.

Still a problem in 3.5.

Not sure if this is the right fix.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
