Badly show window header when exception has many lines of text
Last modified: 2017-08-08 08:21:05 EDT
Description of problem: When error is showed and the error have more lines of description text then no text is visible in header of gtk window where user add additional info. Also the window is higher and from some point the buttons on the bottom can't be clicked because user don't see them. I have bad feeling something similar is happening when the description text will be too long. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libreport-2.6.3-1.fc24.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I'm having this issue with DNF error in anaconda installer but the error which caused the exception is fixed now. I can test it but it shouldn't be so hard to reproduce this issue in some lab environment. Actual results: Don't see header with bug description. Also on some number of lines in the description user can't confirm the dialog. Expected results: The window header should show first line or only few first characters without a newlines. Additional info: I'm attaching screenshots with the problem and the exception which the DNF is raising.
