[New-bugs-announce] [issue37041] IDLE: path browser unusable on some displays

[Andre Roberge]

New submission from Andre Roberge <andre.roberge at gmail.com>:

On my computer (Windows 10, screen resolution 3000 x 2000, scaling of text and other elements set at 200% as the recommended value), the path browser is essentially unusable as the items overlap each other. See the attached image. 

I found that changing the following:

    def draw(self, x, y):
        # XXX This hard-codes too many geometry constants!
        dy = 40  # changed from 20

in tree.py solved the problem.
