Network settings window too small

Post by RamBurner »

The Network Settings window opens up small and after resizing it, it won't re-open at the larger size, it goes back to the small size.
Cinnamon 19.1
How can I get it to retain the resize? The small window is not usable.

It's a bug reported upstream not yet fixed.

https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/8360

Note I don't recommend attempting the workaround outlined in comment 4 of the linked issue - it's a fudge not a proper fix and will cause other settings windows to open at at a fixed height (too big sometimes and too small in many cases).

Edit to add: the workaround outlined in comments 6/7 is good though.
For custom Nemo actions, useful scripts for the Cinnamon desktop, and Cinnamox themes visit my Github pages.
