This black region does not show on my system (gnome3). Can you try playing with the few options of the window or widgets with

glade AMC-gui-source_latex_dialog.glade
to find how to remove this black area?

After some tinkering I found that changing the vertical alignment of GtkDialog from Start to Fill seems to resolve the black region.

But there is still a lot of empty space below the buttons, which Gtk automatically assigns (and can't be removed), as we have enabled line wrap on the labels. So I am thinking of creating a fixed sized dialog to prevent layout issues.

I am attaching a modified version of AMC-gui-source_latex_dialog.glade which creates a fixed size dialog.

In this I have removed the GtkGrid and used its parent GtkBox as the layout container itself. Also previously clicking on the description labels did not change the state of radio buttons. I have now used a custom content for the radio buttons so that clicking on labels changes the its state.

So here is how the new 'Choose Latex Source' dialog looks like:

Can you check if it works for you on your system?

This is perfect for me too.

Updated in hg:fb0ae0d.

Also there was a typo in the dialog. I had written 'containing the' two times in the description for Archive. Its fixed in this commit.
