The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Background delete dialogue box

Post by *ebakker »

Small cosmetic:
In the small background delete box: the total number of files is not fully shown, but there is space enough to show the full number of files.

Sorry, the space is used for the number of files and file sizes (where available, e.g. when copying) in this dialog. This is using standard Windows controls, so it's not possible to share the space dynamically.

I can see two potential solutions:
1) increasing the dialog width (it's quite small now),
2) calling the GetTextExtentPoint32 API (returns string width in pixels) and setting text control width accordingly.
