As I'm now testing with the gtk3 version (webkit) I found a strange difference from the gtk2 version. In the old version, when I compose a new message (actually new or reply) the Recipients section starts out with only one line, and adds additional lines as I add recipients. With the gtk3 version, it starts with the Recipients area being three lines tall. Then, if I actually have three recipients (or more) the area remains three lines tall, with a scroll bar. The old version expanded that section as needed, at least to show four lines plus a bit.
Ahh, yes...that was a consequence of some API changes. The widget that holds the addresses is a scrolled window, and in master/gtk2 we use a trick to keep its vertical size small enough to hold just the used addresses, until they hit a threshold that triggers the scrolling. In gtk3 that trick no longer works, so we have to set a fixed height for the widget, whether or not the scrolling is needed. If anyone knows of a fix for that, I'd love to hear about it! Peter
