The layout of the progress dialog is suboptimal (see attached screenshot):
- too much space between message and bar (it would be nice if the progress bar could be vertically 
centered on the dialog)
- the message is top aligned with the icon; vertically centered would look nicer.

The wide vertical gap seems to have been fixed in I20041101.
So there is only the second (minor) item left: message is top aligned with the icon
Comment 5 Andre Weinand CLA 2004-11-02 12:51:19 EST 
No, the wide gap isn't fixed.
But I think I understand now what the problem is:

I get the progress dialog with the wide vertical gap when synchronizing a large number of projects in 
my workspace, that is I select about 30 projects in the package explorer and then select the "Team" > 
"Synchronize with repository" action from the context menu.
If the number of projects is small, I don't see a wide gap.
The gap seems to start growing if the selection contains about 10 projects.
If I resize the progress dialog, the gap disappears.
Comment 6 Andre Weinand CLA 2004-11-02 12:55:27 EST 
So it seems that the size of the selection (either the number of items or the total length of the 
concatenated items strings) somehow has an influence on the layout calculation.

There are currently no plans to work on this although we would be happy to review a patch

As per http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform_UI/Bug_Triage_Change_2009
Comment 9 Prakash Rangaraj CLA 2010-05-14 05:56:28 EDT 
I tried syncing the whole Platform UI projects, couldn't see this big dialog. Also haven't seen this dialog in the past two years in any other place. Probably fixed during some other bug fix.

Marking as invalid for now.
