Description Jason Sholl CLA 2006-05-22 16:01:28 EDT 
If you double click on the bottom section of a wizard (I reproduced this with the new Java Class & new Java Project wizards) it resizes to a very small (and unusable size).  This happens with every wizard I've tried.

Susan, this is the intended behavior, correct?
Comment 5 Karice McIntyre CLA 2006-05-23 11:11:30 EDT 
This is a feature - see bug 140306
Comment 6 Jason Sholl CLA 2006-05-23 11:15:46 EDT 
If this is the intendend behavior, I think you should reconsider.  If hit this a few times when trying to quickly skip over a page in a multipage wizard.  Having the wizard resize to an unusable size when I accidently miss the next or back button is frustrating.  Also, the wizard I'm using is not part of base eclipse and is considerably larger than either of the java wizards and has several pages, so the resize issue is more of a problem because the user has to resize the wizard before continuing.

Besides, I'm not quite sure what the usefulness is of having the wizard resize if you double click in that area considering it can be resized in the normal windows fashion.  Furthermore, even if with this fuction, why should it be resized to such a small size?

For reference on why this feature was added, see bug 116906 and bug 137315.
The small size on resize problem is bug 140306.
Comment 8 Susan McCourt CLA 2006-05-23 12:06:20 EDT 
If we get enough feedback that this feature is accidentally invoked by users, we may reconsider the gesture, but for those that wanted to resize their dialogs to the default size, this feature was appreciated.  

If the wizard is sizing too small to be useful, then there could be some other problem.  The intention is that the double click restores the dialog to its originally computed size.

closing.
