| Description: |
On small x screen size, tk_getOpenFile and friends are larger than the screen. This makes the dialog hard to use. Proposal is to show them in zoom state in this case. A typical application is Androwish, but this may also hit other screens with limited place. An implementation is proposed in branch [7c28f835-file-dialog-zoom-small-screen], starting from commit [0b451ef2]. Note: this ticket is a sister of ticket [e19f1d891] and requires its functions to get the decoration frame width. Any comment welcome ! Harald | |||

CI is all green. I will wait for Francois. If it is ok for him, I will merge the work by Csaba. The fullscreen solution is IMHO only applicable for Android and is not merged to plain Tk. The ticket and screenshots are here: https://androwish.org/home/info/043a010d9e9fdcb3 oehhar added on 2025-08-11 07:33:21: Great work was done by Csaba to constraint the windows on the physical screen, if it is larger. This work is in branch [7c28f835-file-dialog-zoom-small-screen-limit] starting with commit [7c5778e6] A screenshot on Android is attached with the file name "choosedir_constraint.png". IMHO this is an improvement for all Tk applications. Thanks for all, Harald | |||
