#622 Line Height in Message Window

[CLightfield]

Can the line height of the Message/Log File window be set to automatic? I've attached a screenshot of what I have in mind. On the left (TXS 2.5.2) the line height is small enough to see several warnings, but on the right (TXS 2.6.6e) the line height is too large to see very many. One consequence of the larger line height is that it's difficult to keep track while scrolling through errors/warnings.

Thanks,

This seems to happen only under certain conditions. I saw this once but now I'm not able to reproduce it.

Does it happen always for you? If not, can you describe when you get this effect?

I have tried 2.6.6e on a MBA with OSX 10.9.1 and was able to reproduce the effect. The screenshots above are from 2.6.6e on a rMBP with OSX 10.8.5

On both systems, the line width is wide on the first compile after opening TXS, but will change to the narrow width upon subsequent compiles. So it's not a problem. The solution is compile twice after opening TXS.

Thanks for looking into this. I appreciate your efforts. Feel free to close this feature request.

The solution is compile twice after opening TXS.

Well that's a mere workaround, not a solution. I'd like to completely fix this in the first place. However I'm still not able to reproduce it. Could you send me your texstudio.ini?

I was now able to reproduce the behavior consistently. This seems to be a bug in Qt, which does not calculate the correct height under certain circumstances. hg 4241 (656d4859c4c9) implements a workaround.
