Description
It is hard for sight users to add or modify speech dictionary. Because, it is not possible to resize input window of speech dictionaries.
- Press NVDA+N to open NVDA menu.
- Goto Preferences -> Speech Dictionary submenu.
- Chuse 1 of the dictionaries from menu to open dialog for add or modify entries.
With speech output, we can work with this dialog but, it is to small for sighted users to work with this dialog.

How can I make the window and the List bigger at all? How are the strings named?

This is a defect. It should probably be fixed for 0.6 if possible, but we'll let it fall to 0.7 if we can't fix it in time.
From memory, the problem is that the list view control doesn't account for the best fit for the initially displayed columns when determining the size to be used. I think the best approach is probably just to hard code a minimum size for the list view, as annoying as that is.

The Elements list shoulb be bigger in size, too.
Is it maybe possible to have the Windows maximized?

- Status changed from new to closed
- Resolution set to fixed
From what I can tell using displayModel, this is fixed in changest:main,4062. The list is now much larger, and all the columns are viewable, even though if text in one column is too long it will still be truncated. I don't see a need to be able to resize this list by the user, as now the list should be big enough anyway. Please reopen if there is still a sizing issue with the list.
