[xmonad] xmonad & opera dialogs

[Lithis]

I use Opera with xmonad 0.9 and I have never noticed a
problem with dialog sizes. I don’t use a password, but the
download dialogs and all other dialogs are appropriately
sized. What version of Opera are you running? I’m running
the latest under Arch Linux, but I didn’t have any trouble
under Ubuntu several years ago either. What distro are you
using?

Can you resize the dialog boxes? If you do so, do new
dialogs open with the new size or still with the incorrect
size?

Is this an intermittent problem, i.e., do some download
dialogs open with the correct size and some are too large?
Do the same dialogs always have the same incorrect sizes or
do they vary?

When dialog boxes in other applications open in a size I
don’t like, I often press Mod+T to tile the dialog box.
(I’ve considered modifying my config to automatically tile
all dialog boxes, like ion3 used to.) If you can’t fix it
any other way, tiling missized dialog boxes is an easy
workaround.
