           Summary: Height of main window cannot be reduced enough to fit on
                    low res. displays
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.10.0-rc1
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mail at patrick-nagel.net


Version:           0.10.0-rc1 (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

With the advent of netbooks with a typical resolution of 1024x600 and other
similar devices, GUI applications should be adjusted to fit on low resolution
(i.e. small) screens.

Currently digiKam is unusable on my netbook, because the main window is cut of
at the bottom, and there is no way of resizing it.

Please reduce the hard-coded 'minimum height' to at most 450 pixels (currently
something like 680 pixels on my screen, which makes digiKam too big even on
1024x768 screens, if you have a "fat" bottom or top panel).
IMO it's better for (netbook) users to have to scroll but being able to use an
application than to not being able to use an application at all.

about the configure dialogue, which has the same issue.
