Summary0004547: Text drop down widths do not support large and extra large fonts
DescriptionAs reported here:
http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28021&highlight=

I set Options->Skin:Font Size(Large) to improve readability of MM3. Normally works fine, however, just noticed that in at least one case, Edit Subscription:When new episodes are available, the width cf the drop down box is not wide enough for the text and the text can not be scrolled.

Width is fine for same option in Add Subscription and Options->Podcast.

Problem would be worse in in Font Size(Very Large) and possibly in other languages, e.g. French typically requires about 40% more characters than English for equivalent phrases.

I am sensitive to the issue now and will report other specific instances as they appear, but, it might need a more general audit of widths versus option box text.

I worked around the specific instance because the order of the choices have not changed even though the significant differences were not visible.

Fixed in buil 1156 for the particular "Subscription" dialog problem.

Ideal solution would be to allow some horizontal-scrolling of dropdowns in such a case, but I am not sure if this is possible, Petr should know better, because he is working with themeengine and these visual things.

Verified 1156. It's not perfect, but it's better.
