SUMMARY

The rename image dialog doesn't display properly

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

The Rename dialog isn't sizing properly. I need to manually resize it to be able to see the textfields and the buttons.

I first saw this problem with Geeqie 1.7.2, and it still exists in 2.1 which I compiled from source. Before resizing:

After resizing:

to temporary fix the issue, I'm running this devilspie script:

(if (is (window_name) "Rename - Geeqie")
         (begin
             (geometry "1100x650")
         )       
)

[caclark]

There is an option - Edit/Preferences/Windows/Remember Dialog Window Positions.

The default setting for this is "off".

Would the use of that option be sufficient to solve your problem?

[idnael]

yes, it solves the problem. thanks
