Fixed in svn r7335 (replaced a Q3 widget by the Qt4 version)

r7335 doesn't completely fix the problem. Instead of overlapping other widgets, the scale input box just gets smashed. See the second attached image.

I also just noticed that the frame checkbox gets squeezed before the spacer does, which means that it is usually not displayed.

If you make the composer window taller, the widgets will all appear correctly (not that this fixes the underlying problem :).

Replying to g_j_m:

If you make the composer window taller, the widgets will all appear correctly (not that this fixes the underlying problem :).

On displays 1024x768 and smaller you can't even even make the window big enough for the scale to be visible.

I have attached an image (new.png) that illustrates a possible solution to the problem of the map composer details pane being too tall (cf to old.png). If this is acceptable to us, it's probably best to make the same change to all the panes in the map composer. Comments?

Looks good to me. It is probably a good thing to do to some or all of the other composer option panes as well.

Fixed in svn r7451.

Also tidied up other map composer detail panes to use less vertical space.
