Restrict gtkfilechooser height

[lumqarz]

On 1024x768 resolution with gtk-font-name="Sans 14" in gtkrc-2.0.
Gimp's open, save, or export windows dialog often being bigger than actual screen.

To prevent this from happening:

Code:

sudo chattr +i ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini

This prevent other gtk2 application changing the Geometry* values.

To re-allow editing:

Code:

sudo chattr -i file-path

or sudo editior file-path

gtkfilechooser.ini example:

Code:

[Filechooser Settings]
LocationMode=filename-entry
ShowHidden=false
ExpandFolders=false
ShowSizeColumn=true
GeometryX=0
GeometryY=0
GeometryWidth=800
GeometryHeight=700
SortColumn=name
SortOrder=ascending
StartupMode=recent

"chattr +i" looks a bit extreme... Wouldn't "chmod -w" on the file and its parent be enough? Or give the ownership of the file and its parent to root?
