gEDA-bug: [Bug 876299] Re: gschem attribute editor has textentry with small height

[Peter Clifton <pcjc2@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm hesitant to add a fixed minimum-size request in pixels to our code,
as that doesn't scale well with different fonts and screen DPIs.

At the very least, we ought to be scaling this based upon the line-
height of the font used to render the text, but I'm not immediately sure
how to grab that in a non-kludgy way.

In the mean time, we should investigate whether the Ubuntu overlay
scrollbar feature is robbing us of a convenient minimum size we ought to
be allocated due to the adjacent "Add" button widget.

Title:
  gschem attribute editor has textentry with small height

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Confirmed
Status in âgeda-gafâ package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The attribute editor dialog in gschem 1.6.2.20110115 on Ubuntu 11.10
  shows up with its textentry for adding a name=value attribute having
  too small height.  It appears to be only 1 pixel.  With some fiddling,
  it is possible to enter text (but not see it, of course).  This
  problem does not occur on Ubuntu 11.04 with the same revision of
  gschem so I guess that some behaviour has changed in gtk+.
