While this sort of works, now it makes the dialog way too tall, and I don't think it's the right approach to the problem. We should figure out what's causing the default size to be wrong and fix that, rather than leaving it broken and working around it in the proposed way.

This revision now requires changes to proceed.Jun 19 2019, 5:38 PM

We get default size because of kconfigdialog. If we make changes in kconfigdialog, all the Dialogs sizes will be changed.

If KConfigDialog is calculating default window sizes incorrectly under certain circumstances, then it probably should be changed. :)

what to do? Is it still a junior job now?

Figure out why the default size is incorrectly calculated and fix it. :)
