[Bug 14500] New: Supreme Commander: Input field too narrow to enter the CD key
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14500 Summary: Supreme Commander: Input field too narrow to enter the CD key Product: Wine Version: 1.1.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: hcvst(a)gmx.net Hi, I cannot enter the CD key to "Supreme Commander" fully as the input fields are too narrow for some sections. In particular "UMW2" does not fit into field 4 as shown below. XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-4444-XXXX This is similar to bug# 9924, which is closed. Applying the winetricks or dpi workaround described there does not work for me. I am running Ubuntu 8.04 (2.6.24-19-generic) @ 1680x1050. This is the first time I use wine. Please let me know if you need more infos.

Indeed, in some games, entering CD-Key is not possible (the fields are too narrow). Some games are not limiting the number of characters in each field, they are just checking if the character won't get out of the text box (so, the wider box, the longer text you can type into). I think changing the font to a smaller one can help you with that (not playing with DPI) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Can someone try an older version of Wine and figure out if this is a regression?
