[Bug 45697] Resizing improvement : option to lock aspect ratio

[Trouilliez vincent]

Public bug reported:

When I watch television on my computer, with XawTV or TVtime for
example, I often end up resizing the window, usually because they always
start with a given size, that never suits me. But it's impossible to
resize it without messing the aspect ratio, so it always take some "fine
tuning" with the mouse, to make it "just right" again, so that there is
no black borders around the pic.

What would be cool, for example, would be that XawTV could say to
metacity:

"if the window is not maximized, always keep the aspect ratio locked to
4:3 (for example)  )."

This would make it much more convenient to resize the picture.

** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Wishlist
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu)
     Severity: Normal => Wishlist
