I just ask to the Shotwell list why this menu doesn't displayed entirely and they tell me that it is a "feature"... I think this is clearly bad, and I hope it will be changed one time. I attach a screen-shot of how it is displayed in Ubuntu 10.10 and Shotwell 0.9.1. ** Attachment added: "Shotwel

mac_v: This approach makes it look more pleasant, but let's take another approach and look at it from some perspective. Ideally, when the ComboBox menu is shown, all items are visible and the selected option is placed under the cursor. We all agree this is requested behaviour and we see this in 9

For many option menus, the items you are most likely to want to choose are those immediately before or after the currently selected one. This is true for more menus than those where you are most likely to want to change to the first item or the last item. Therefore, the most efficient behavior for
