Reporter:  brand77  |        Type:  defect                                    
  Status:  new      |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)                              
 Version:  2.6.5    |    Keywords:  tab label vertical placement size overflow
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 while it is well handled with Top,Left,Rigth or Bottom placement, with
 Left Vertical or Rigth Vertical there is no control over the label size.

 This little change in pidgin_conv_tab_pack() may do what I need:

 -  if (tabs_side) {
 +  if (tabs_side || angle) {
     gtk_label_set_width_chars(
       GTK_LABEL(gtkconv->tab_label),

 or set tabs_side=TRUE when "GTK_POS_xxxx|8",
 but I'm sure You can do it much better...

 I can't find the exact line number 'cos I'm working on a modified 2.6.5
 gtkconv.c, but it's easy to find...

 I use this space also to say hello to everyone is working on Pidgin!
 I'm working on a Pidgin clone with some additional feature (I hope...), so
 I will be back soon with other questions/bugs/patches/etc...
 Thank you!
