Description
With system fonts set to a large size or high DPI, the Deluge interface becomes too wide to fit on the screen. The window cannot be made any smaller, and has to be moved back and forth to see everything. It also breaks the maximize function. Occurs in Ubuntu 10.04, with font size 16 at 144 DPI, at 1600x1200 screen resolution.

At one point I thought that including a Preferences page for the Statusbar would be a good idea. The user could toggle on/off the various indicators/items. Maybe that is what we need?
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
The main window width is primarily affected by the status bar which cannot shrink below the label sizes. I attempted to enable ellipsize for the labels but this creates new issues with their width.
The solution will require calculating the label widths based on overall window size thus is more complicated.
So in the meantime an obvious workaround would be to hide the status bar.
