I have recently installed Ardour (Using Debian) but the window
frames are outside of the screen (Ident show me, that it has a
width of 1063 pixel and can not be sized smaller. Please can
you correct this, tha the startsize IS not bigger a thze actual
screen?
I have the problem with
ardour-gtk:

and the versions of Etch and Sid. (I have gotten curently no
reponse from the Debian Maintainer of Ardour)

I would go along with a 1000 pixel minimum app width standard, which
would add a bit of room for fancy window borders on a 1024x768 screen.
I don't have much sympathy anymore for users that can't do better than
800x600 though. I'm getting 2048x1536 at 75Hz (had to brag).

Another reason I'm replying is to mention that a lot of people (especially us
older types) still use 800x600 (or 640x480) because of our older eyes.

Good point. I'm usually able to ease my eyes on a high res display by
making the fonts larger, and configuring the window manager to use larger
features. I end up with a much nicer looking display with smoother fonts
etc.
I haven't run ardour since reading this thread, but it does seem a bit
odd that it has such a large minimum size. If people want to run 640x480
and scroll around to find the different parts of the program, I guess
they ought to be able to do that.

For some minutes I have changed the font size used by Ardour and now
it has a width of around 920 pixels, but the Menus are non readable.

800x600 (14" CRT) is realy small and I have never seen a Laptop
with 2048x1536 resolution...
I am using a IBM R40 (1300Mhz, 1 GByte Memory, 120 GByte HDD)

It's still rude for an app to default to wider than 1000 pixels. Many
people with large displays like to use them to see more apps.
