Ok, I'm new to this list, got directed here from a discussion started earlier today here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1594456&gro...
Anyway, I've downloaded the latest source via the SVN (r985) and compiled it. I have noticed that the scrollbars do not only get cut of in the terminal window as I mentioned in the discussion in the above link, but also in the status window, scribble pad, etc..., so I thought I would see if I can maybe find a solution for it.
I've been plodding away at the source code for a few hours, seeing if I can find a solution, but mainly just becoming familiar with the source code for now (and GTK in general) and hopefully find where the problem could probably be.
I initially believed it could be located in msgwindow.c file but it could also be the way the message panel is inserted, or one of it's properties maybe. The control I believe I should be looking at, "scrolledwindow1" or one of it's children, after having a look at the geany.glade file.
I will keep plodding away as I find this quite interesting anyway, whether I can fix it or not. Any hints that might help will be much appreciated though.
I'm not an experienced Gnome programmer as of yet, as I have only just left behind the Windoze environment, but I have about 12-13 years programming experience mainly in Pascal (DOS), and Delphi (Win32), but the last 5 years now also in PHP and Java... and some C++, so C code doesn't scare me a bit ;-)
I've always been interested in either joining an open source project, starting a new one, or just helping bits and pieces on existing projects where I can, but I'm afraid I have very little GTK knowledge as of yet. I have been programming in DOS, Win32, and OpenGL for 10+ years, both low and high level, and I learn new things very quickly.
I think I should start learning GTK programming now as this interests me (and the Gnome project in general), maybe in the future I can be of a bit of help.
Oh, I also speak two languages, English... and Dutch (although a little rusty in Dutch), but I see you already have a Dutch translator?
