1.4.5 - settings - catalog - fix Build thumbnails dialog

[user0]

XnViewMP 1.4.5 64bit
Windows11 (22H2), display resolution 3840x2160, win scaling 150%

Settings - Catalog
Build thumbnails dialog need some tweaks

Issue A
progress bar does not reach right end

Issue B
dialog automatically resizes on long filenames, but does not return to normal size after
also its better to left-align filenames

Issue C
this dialog should not be resizable at all, however it is possible to manually resize it

What bothers me a little, however, is the dynamic enlargement of the window, although the file names are sometimes only minimally longer. With JPEG files, the display of the long name is sometimes so fast that the enlargement of the window for a few file names seems unnecessary.

Furthermore, it would be nice if the abort button was placed at the bottom centre of the window.

But it is more of a cosmetic problem.

commit buttons shall be right-aligned

Okay, there is a basic style guide for windows or recommandation.

See issue for current status and some details.

With Qt, all dialogs are resizable...
