open file dialog box problem
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 13 December, 2004 - 02:48
hi, whenever i try to open a file, the dialog box or whatever you call it is messed up. the directory tree section is so compressed that nothing is shown, as is the other box and the filename box. they're all so squished that i can't see anything to open up. is there a way to fix this? thanks.

I think this appears only since Jedit 4.2 and only on Linux.
Workaround:
Open $HOME/.jedit/properties and delete the Lines
vfs.browser.dialog.width=...
and
vfs.browser.dialog.height=...
from time to time. After that you have to restart Jedit.
Which OS, window manager and Jedit version do you run?
