TYPO3 Core

The size of the Element Browser popup window is hardcoded to 600 x 350 px.
The height of 350 px is way to small for efficient work with even medium sized file trees. Editors are either constantly resizing the EB window or they keep scrolling their fingers sore with each image they place.

It would be of great help if the height of this window would at least be hardcolded to a higher value. A height of 650px would be safe even on smaller screens (1024x768px).

The silver bullet for sure would be to make this configurable (probably best using a JSopenParams property like many other popup windows in TYPO3 do).

But simply increasing the hardcoded value to a reasonable size would already be a quick and effective solution!

The hardcoded size is found in t3lib/class.t3lib_tceforms.php, around line 5190:

browserWin = window.open(url,"Typo3WinBrowser","height=350,width="+(mode=="db"?650:600)+",status=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,scrollbars=1");

This could simply be changed to

browserWin = window.open(url,"Typo3WinBrowser","height=650,width="+(mode=="db"?650:600)+",status=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,scrollbars=1");
