            Bug ID: 345689
           Summary: 'Find' window should open at minimum size or feature a
                    sticky size
           Product: kexi
           Version: 2.9.1
          Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based)
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: General
          Assignee: kexi-bugs at kde.org

The 'Find' window opens at a larger then minimum size.  Also, resizing this
window is not a sticky option.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a form
2. Open the 'Find' window
3. Resize the window to its smallest dimension

OR

1. Open a form
2. Open the 'Find' window
3. Resize the window to  preferred dimensions
4. Close the 'Find' window
5. Re-open the 'Find' window and repeat preceding steps 1 & 2

Actual Results:  
In the first case you can always reduce the 'Find' window to a smaller size.

In the second case you will see that the 'Find' window opens again to its
default size.

Expected Results:  
That the 'Find' window will either open at a minimum size, or else to the
previously resized dimensions.

With slight rearrangement of the components (particularly the two tick-boxes)
it could be made even smaller.

The idea is that this only needs to take up the minimum of screen real estate
when opening to avoid obscuring data fields. Making it larger than the minimum
default that could be set may be less common that increasing the size.

The present mode of operation is the same for tables and forms, we just
illustrate it with a form.
