dnf dragora 2.1.2 won't maximize on gnome wayland on fedora 36

[dnkmmr69420]

Install f36 on a vm and then install dnf dragora then try to mazimize it. you can't maximize it and the bottom part won't show since you can't resize it to fit the screen.

which is the vm screen size? changing the size is a libyui (upstream) work, and i wonder if you're using libyui-gtk?

[dnkmmr69420]

vm screen size 1360 368. The same problem persists on cinanom too. 2.1.2 is way more stable than 2.1.0 so thats good. Yes I think I am using libyui-gtk. you can change horizontal size but you can't change vertical size. I have not tried this on real hardware though. Is there a way to fix this? what does upstream mean?

[dnkmmr69420]

I found this: https://github.com/libyui/libyui-gtk/issues/75

[dnkmmr69420]

update: when I made the screen rez high enough to see the bottom, You can make it bigger and return it to its default but you can't make it smaller to fit the default screen res

Unfortunately i was able to change only a little part of this issue (the -1 error reported there) in libyui-gtk, but i haven't found where the resizing problem is. Finding a c++ test case could help maybe for debugging.

I've got an idea, mabey code it so it can be more compressed. have an option called compressed view

[dnkmmr69420]

or have it where you can resize the boxed areas on the interface

what is a c++ test case?

what is a c++ test case?

it is a libyui example written in c++ language that give the evidence of the problem. dnfdragora uses python language and that cannot help in "debugging" libyui-gtk.

Feel free to try any solution you have in mind, code is into public repository, but please provide us a patch after so that we can merge it if it solves the problem :)

The problem is that I barley know anything about code since I'm not a developer. I think an easy way to fix this is just make it more compact mabey code it so it does not take as much space. I really just want it useable so I can click buttons like apply at the bottom. mabey the boxes where the entries, catagories and details are shown could just be coded to be smaller

work around is typing this into terminal dnfdragora --qt make sure you have qt installed for this. you can also make a shortcut for this too.

if uninistall libyui-gtk and leave only libyui-qt it should start using qt b default

[dnkmmr69420]

ok. 2.1.2 is a massive improvement over 2.1.0. way to go
