As you scroll through the list of translators keep the window width constant by setting a minimum width. A little too narrow at 8pt, and the window is too wide at 24pt, but at 12pt it is just right. (at least for 1024x768). The window width and height were not chosen arbitrarily, 598px is just about 600px and almost exactly fits the width of our widest translator (PNG translator). The height is 369px which comes from the golden ratio of 1.62:1. The width of the translators are set to exactly match this at 12pt font size. This way you don't get any unexpected window resizing. At other font sizes the window does resize, but, the contents still fit (mostly) nicely. See screenshot for details: http://insightfactory.tumblr.com/image/141980518317
Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku
See ReadMe.Compiling.
Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
