Spell check window: cannot adjust width
Calibre 7.14 / Linux Mint 20.1 (cinnamon(
For the last two Calibre versions it has not been possible to adjust the width of the spellcheck window (although the mouse pointer shape indicates otherwise). |

Try calibre 7.18. It's using a newer version of QT which may help.

I'm running 7.17 in Windows 10 and the spellcheck window does change size in that.
EDIT: Oops. Sorry. I thought 7.18 was where the QT update happened. Just checked the "What's New" page and it was 7.17. So, as Jon said, give 7.18 a try. If it doesn't work there, perhaps it's a Wayland issue (I believe Mint uses Wayland now). EDIT 2: Double oops. Looks like Wayland wasn't added to Mint until v 21.3. So, never mind. I think I'll go away now. Last edited by enuddleyarbl; 09-23-2024 at 10:20 AM. |

One other issue is that the spellcheck window has a minimum size, on my Windows 11 system, that size is 734x526 when I grab a corner and shrink it as far as possible.

Works fine for me, as DNSB noted, it has a minimum width below which it cant be resized.
