Bug Description

On a standard budget laptop (i.e. 1280x800) the dialog box for advanced setting in the export video option exceeds the screen size vertically. I suggest that the code is tweaked so that only one option can be expanded at a time when the display size is detected as being only 800 high.

when the OK button is not visible on the screen I call that a minor bug not
a wishlist item.

Please hold off making any GTK changes - it is more than likely that the current version is the last version that will be using GTK.

Ah, I've only just seen your comment and already made the changes. I'll upload them anyway just in case they're still of some use.

This patch adds a scrollbar to the advanced settings tab, for when the expanded menus would otherwise expand the window. The user can also now resize the window manually, allowing them to view more of the settings without scrolling as much.

I tried to commit this patch, but encountered errors when trying to open the export window, which I haven't been able to sort out.
