Hi,
yesterday i built Sigil from source on Debian for a Netbook, which had no issues beyond a few "deprecated" and "unused variable".
When starting, the Sigil window was not maximized, but bigger than the screen (1024x600) and resize was grey and unusable.
Here i found the thread
Cannot reduce window size on macOS, which pointed me to the section
mainwindow, entries
maximized and
fullscreen in (on this distro) the file
Quote:
|
~/.local/share/sigil-ebook/sigil.ini
|
.
These were both =false, but there was a line in the same section
Code:
geometry=@ByteArray(\x1\xd9\xd0\xcb\0\x3\0\0\0\0\0\x31\0\0\0\0\0\0\x4\x9a\0\0\x2\xd8\0\0\0\x32\0\0\0\x1c\0\0\x4\x99\0\0\x2\xd7\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\x4\0\0\0\0\x32\0\0\0\x1c\0\0\x4\x99\0\0\x2\xd7)
which i removed on a hunch, after copying sigil.ini to a backup.
Sigil started and the problem seemed solved, i can maximize and back, also resize to my heart's content, and the screen size gets respected.
sigil.ini now had, in the
mainwindow section, no more
geometry or
fullscreen lines, though.
Comments? Did i do this right?
