[Pan-users] Small screens and Posting Profile editing

[Kurt Schilling]

After a long absence from using Pan, I've migrated for the most part to 
Linux. Today as I set up Pan on an Acer Aspire One D270 netbook, I found 
that the netbook's screen is smaller than the panel for editing the 
posting profile. The bottom of the panel is truncated such that you 
cannot see the Apply button. In researching how to get around this I 
found that you can reverse tab to apply the changes. Worked just fine. 
Then it occurred to me that that it might be feasible to directly edit 
the posting.xml file under .Pan2.

So my question is if someone is setting up Pan for the first time, would 
editing the posting.xml file be the best option. Consider that person to 
be a newbie. Or could the posting profile GUI be edited to be less than 
600 pixels high? Or perhaps be made responsive to screen size?
This is a reported bug on GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 704959 from just over a 
year ago.
