screenshot of bugs query form dialog

While trying to create query using query form with Bugzilla connector on linux system, the fields are displayed without scrollbar and makes it difficult to tell which value you are selecting. There are too many fields on the same dialog, most of the list fields only have very small screen real estate, what about using TabFolder to offload some of the fields into different tabs so the screen is more usable. 

Please see the attached screenshot.

Agreed that this can be problematic, particularly on small screens. We should take another pass through the UI design as part of bug 283200.

Frank, you should be able to tackle this as part of bug 283200 by setting a minimum height on the lists.
Comment 4 Steffen Pingel CLA 2011-02-16 19:37:17 EST 
The minimum height of the lists is now 80 pixels. Let's go with that for now but we may have to make that smarter, e.g. when large fonts are used.
