Fwiw, I've wanted this too. However, I think Rodney is correct in pointing out that in a lot of cases we'd want to compress the list view somehow. Using multiple lines per item would be cool with me, but I'm not sure ETable supports that. Definitely something we/you could look into. Without doing anything to compress the list contents, I think I'd rate this as an "easy to medium" difficulty hack (adding code to let the user choose the mode - vertical vs. horizontal - would be the bulk of the work). -- Hans Petter _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
