Just use the internal function called defaultSize

The height of window should change, in my case I want it to be just 20 or 30

So I was playing around with searchEntry and questioned that is there a way possible to increase window size dynamically? Like if we set the window size as default my guess is that we cannot changes it?

Plus I found out that if we set height below 100 it will not work, not sure why? I was resize the window using the mouse, got to know that there's a limit on width and height size.

I believe all your observations are due to the same problem (right?):

I found out that the window's width request is set to 360 and the height request to 200, on any window. Not sure where this comes from, but I'll look into this.

No, we can change it. Is it maybe the limit that you described in your last post that is the problem here?

It seems that the 360x200px minimum size is set automatically by libadwaita or GTK, which is a reasonable size for most use cases and prevents empty windows from crashing the whole app. I added the minSize(width:height:) modifier that you can use the customize the minimum height and set it to 20-30. Could you let me know whether this solves the previous problems?
