> What width and height do you want to choose? 1000 x 600? What happens in
case I have a netbook with a resolution of, say, 800x600? In short, I
think hard-coding some value without looking at the actual size available
is not the way to go here.
God no, it's the user who can configure the values if necessary (but
doesn't have to).
The patch does not ship default values or anything! It simply provides an
override mechanism activated only by actually configuring
extensions.torbutton.window.inner{Width,Height}.
E.g., on my large screen, I choose 1000x600.
And other people affected by this bug would be able to actually do
something to normalize their fingerprint until this is fixed properly,
which looks like it might take a while.
