Search mode options are cutoff with default screen size #665

When selecting search mode you will see that the options are cut-off.

Options: 1) Make the default size able to accomodate all options, this is going to be an l10n problem though and we'd need to allow localisers to adjust the size.

2) Look at some other way of showing options

I would go for making the window larger by default. (We should also remember what size we were last time.) By the way, on my machine it is showing fine, so it is probably because of higher resolution that it is not fitting on your screen.

So apart from l10n, screen size and resolution come into play. The current hard coded width is 620 pixels. I now changed my local copy to 796x544, and will test it like that for a while. The xxx...xxx localisation fits comfortably at this size on my screen. This way 800x600 screens might still be ok. What is the OLPC, by the way?

Setting the width_request in the glade file however, makes the given size the minimum. Perhaps we need a solution in code.

Not sure what OLPC size is. Wouldn't worry about that, we can deal with it when that issue arrives.

Revision 9890 added 796x544 as the default size in the preferences, but we can still go smaller, so I'm marking as fixed.
