Description stephan_schaefer 2009-04-14 13:41:53 UTC 
Choose Tools->Macros->Organize Dialogs...
Create a new dialog by choosing "New..." in the Dialogs Tabpage
Choose "Edit"
An empty dialog appears
Now try to change the size of the dialog by using the mouse or by editing the
properties page
The dialog immediately snaps to a size of 0 pixels which cannot be changed anymore
This means you cannot change the size of any dialog and (perhaps more important)
the dialog becomes unusable once you try to resize it.

I noticed this behavior on Mac OS X only (Windows looks good, Linux/Solaris not
tested)

As it worked in 3.0.1 this is a regression.

tentative target
Comment 5 philipp.lohmann 2009-06-05 13:46:51 UTC 
fixed in CWS ooo311gsl03

@ab: the reason is that you have an unshown real system window (a dialog I
presume) in the background and the size property gets updated from that. That
does not seem wise as not visible system windows usually return a size of (0,0).
On the other platforms there is the exception that before their first Show the
dialogs report their real size, however that is more of an accidental
implementation detail, you should not really rely on that. Actually you
shouldn't ask that window for its size at all if it is not visible.

Of course the quaint (0,0) reporting is highly questionable itself, but that is
ancient vcl behavior, so I don't know what would break if it were changed.

please verify in CWS ooo311gsl03
Comment 7 h.ilter 2009-06-15 09:26:51 UTC 
Verified with cws ooo311gsl03 = ok
Comment 8 thackert 2009-08-13 16:37:07 UTC 
Hello ssa, *,
I have tested this issue with OOO310m18 (Build:9417)(CWS:sysui311) under Debian
SID AMD64, where I can resize the dialog window without any problem. Would you
be so kind to test it again with Mac OSX, please?
TIA
Thomas.
