Different behaviour of Properties window

Hi, this is not a localization issue per se, but its consequences are.

When the Properties windown is opened by right-clicking on a track, the labels and textboxes' sizes are adjusted automatically so they don't overlap each other. But when the same window is open from the menu (view|properties), the labels have a fixed size and, in most languages other than English, there's not enough space to display the text.

I wonder if it is possible to have the first behaviour in all cases.

Thanks,

Pablo

Anyway the resizing of the text/combo boxes doesn't really always give a great effect. In the Spanish version the genre & rating comboboxes get kinda small.

True, it would be necessary to enlarge the window, or somehow adjust the witdth of the window automatically, but I'm not sure that can be easily done...

And that might lead to problems of screen estate with especially the lower resolutions.

PS. I have one machine running 640*480
