Width of dialog-windows

Hello,
a question about kicad-internals:
Is there a place where kicad stores the standard-width/heigth of dialogs?
Are they hardcoded or are they stored at some txt/xml/json/whatever-files?
So that it’s possible for an adventurous user to tweak such files with a simple text-editor?

background:
For example I find myself extending the standard eeschema-text-dialog on every kicad-startup.
And a simple customization “inside kicad” would be enough for me without bothering the kicad-devs.

My best guess is this is just hardcoded. It’s too trivial for a user setting.

If you don’t want to bother a developer with it (KiCad V6 is delayed enough as it is now) then you can always look it up in the source code :slight_smile:

My personal preference would be that [ F11 ] works in all popup windows to just maximise them.

Only major windows store their position and sizes in settings, simple dialogs are hardcoded but often not with exact numbers but via wxWidgets layout mechanics. In other words things are made to fit, not specified to be exactly x by y pixels.
