Karl -
You are correct, it is not the best solution but it is better than the
misleading situation that the English (default) strings was yielding. I am
resistant to make the combo-box much bigger for words as is main purpose is
to display zoom percentages. Page Width and Whole Page are special cases
that change the zoom with changing window sizes.
I would be willing to resize combobox for any translations that are as small
as possible but don't fit.
Cheers!
