dll titles too long to enter in winecfg over-ride text area

Post by glowrak guy »

The winecfg panel doesn't seem to be sizeable, is the size configurable in a text somewhere?

When I reach the last available character when typing in a long .dll title,
winecfg just crashes.

EDIT: found a solution: in the graphics tab, I boosted the dpi slider to 144, and that allowed
for enough text to be entered. A ubuntu user posted the fix and google displayed it.

Cheers

The solution above worked in Mint 18, but not in Arch Manjaro,
both with a wine-staging 4.11

Vintage diffs :wink:
