annoying horizontal scrollbars in listener result windows

           Summary: annoying horizontal scrollbars in listener result
                    windows
           Product: JMeter
           Version: 1.9.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Main
        AssignedTo: jmeter-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Joerg-Cyril.Hoehle@t-systems.com


The result listener windows create a very large nested window with
horizontal scrollbars, resulting in scrollbars inside a window with scrollbars, 
so the needed scrollbar is not always accessible. This is very annoying.

It seems to me like the reason is that the "write data to file" subframe atop
these windows wants do display all its elements horizontally, resulting in a
very large frame, must larger than my JMeter window or even my screen.

(back from German to English:)
"write all ...":
"enter file name ... or new name"
     [filename input field]
           [choose file button]
                 "log errors only"
-- all in one line, makes it very large. Too large.

I believe this subframe should try to adapt its size to the surrounding frame
(the right hand side of the JMeter display), not impose it a huge size.

As a current consequence, the "view results in table" rows are too large for
my window/screen, so one cannot easily view them and is constantly moving
scrollbars, whereas the best-fit width of the table would actually be much,
much smaller.

Other elements, e.g. HTTP request or test plan just fit into the right hand side 
frame and don't introduce horizontal scrollbars. These also resize well.
