IMO, resizable setup is better, if you're careful (i.e., don't resize the panels to be smaller than the standard size; in fact, only use "Maximize" on the chooser screen, and "Restore" back to the original size for others). > I presume it would be fairly easy to just recompile from source and change > the panel sizes that way also. Though that may not be a good thing to > assume... Sure, but pretty much everything in the dialogs will need to be changed -- not just the size, but also the positions of each widget. Not impossible, but tedious, and pretty useless with general resizability available.
