[platform-ui-dev] default window size to 1024 x 768

[Michael Van Meekeren <Michael_Van_Meekeren@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I understand the concern.  This
is not a question of support really.  If you look at the Eclipse website,
or the supported platforms in the plan document ( http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/eclipse_project_plan_3_0.html
) there actually is no mention of support based on screen resolution or
default workbench window size.

What this change means is that when
the workbench is opened for the first time it will try to be 1024 x 768
instead of 800 x 600.  Once resized the new size is remembered.  Given
the right perspective layout I am sure 800 x 600 will continue to work
well in 3.0.

Does this mean that 800x600 is
no longer officially considered "supported"?
 
My concern is that when working
with 800x600 projectors or creating screencams at 800x600 that things will
look wonky because y'all assume a larger base size.

The Eclipse workbench window has been changed to 1024 x 768.  This
change will appear in nightly builds starting tonight.

If you come across any undesirable side-effects of this please let us know.
