Description Michael Giroux CLA 2007-05-29 13:09:40 EDT 
The CVS Update Details dialog provides a brief problem description, OK and DETAILS buttons, and a scrolling text window containing error messages.

When the user resizes this dialog, the intent is to see more of the error messages in the text window.  Unfortunately, the entire dialog is resized creating a very large fixed portion.  This really isn't what the user (me) desired.

It would be nice if the resize of this dialog kept the size of the fixed area fixed, and only changed the size of the scrolling text window portion.

To illustrate the problem, I will attacvh two screenshots showing the default size and the resized dialog.

CVS Update Dialog after resize

Notice that entire dialog has been resized and the scrolling text window is only about 50% of the new size.  It would be nice if a resize left the top fixed portion asis and gave all of the new height to the text window.

CVS uses the ErrorDialog class provided by the Platform/UI.
