help wrapping metadata fields

[Pablo Rodríguez <oinos web de>]

Hi there,

more than two years ago, I reported the following bug 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319402: metadata must be 
wrapped and not ellipsized (this is what I have just understood after 
some time trying to understand the code).

With the following changes, metadata are wrapped:

--- ev-properties-view.c        2009-01-21 23:35:36.000000000 +0100
+++ evince-2.25.5/properties/ev-properties-view.c       2009-01-21

               NULL);

but when resizing the window word wrap doesn't work.

I'm afraid I don't code (I don't even know whether the code is C or 
C++). But it seems that gtk_label_set_line_wrap() might explain how to 
solve the resizing issue.

Could anyone be so kind to fix my changes and commit them in the final code?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo
