@RaceProUK Goddamned I hate it when apps smear purple all over your text boxes.
-
@RaceProUK What exactly are we being made aware of here?
-
@masonwheeler Proof of the existence of the Loch Ness Monster. Or the dialog being wider than its contents.

Meh. Create a window and then cram everything into the leftmost 1/3 of the window is standard in a lot of applications. I've never understood why such retarded fuckery exists, but it does.
-
@El_Heffe Actually, that window is resized (I made it wider).
-
@RaceProUK confirmed for @ben_lubar alt

One textbox scales. The other one, which contains the long file name, doesn't.

It looks like the width of the dialog box is appropriate for the text at the top.

Oh! You mean that text didn't wrap, so you had to widen the dialog to get it all visible?
-
Oh! Oh! I know! Who uses Julian Day date/time formats? Amiright?

OK, that actually does sort of look like a legitimate problem.

That would require the
Database
grouping box to scale horizontally first.
(That is entirely possible, but could mess up the alignment with the lower boxes, unless they also scale. But then they're "wasting" a bunch of null space.)

/me thinks of the evil he would do putting table layout controls into table layout controls to "fix" this...

@Tsaukpaetra I have done this before, though it's been a little while. Some control libraries support it better than others, though.

But not a very entertaining one.

Looks WinForms-ish, so I guess it's the matter of proper anchoring. Not too pleasant, but given a bit of trial and error...

The purple is an alien. You're supposed to shoot them.
