Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-17968:
------------------------------------------
[~maxandersen] [~crobson] I also believe that the 2nd wizard page is the one that forces
the whole wizard to get too tall (as said before, all the pages are kept to a consistent
height that fits the needs of the tallest among them):

Nevertheless it's important to repeat that what's labeled as "wasted
space" isnt wasted space. It's the space that the wizard reserves for the
progress area. That's how wizard page are laid out in Eclipse when there's a
progress bar: the space required for it is reserved, the progress bar is just hidden when
not displaying some progress.
Application wizard: take less less screen height

Key: JBIDE-17968
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17968
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: openshift
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta2
Environment: Fedora, 1440x900 resolution screen
Reporter: Catherine Robson
Assignee: Max Rydahl Andersen
Labels: application_wizard, uxtest
Fix For: 4.2.0.CR1
Attachments: wizard-too-tall.png
For users with small screen sizes, the OpenShift create application wizard is very tall
and might overflow their screen real-estate. Many of the dialogs in this wizard have lots
of wasted space, so we should see if we can reduce the size of these dialogs as much as
possible.
The height of the dialog is ~870px high. The most common resolution people run these
days is 1366x768 - meaning we're already too high for people's viewable screen.
