Gnumeric has started a very annoying habit of opening up a box to the left of the Information Area (bottom right corner of the display) in width so that the width of the display of tab names is much reduced. This results in only being able to see a small number of the sheet tab names instead of a full-width display showing a larger number of sheet tab names. I'm not sure what this box is called or what is it's function.
Now I'm sure this didn't use to happen, and when I opened one of my sheets with lots of tabs I could see all (or very many) of the sheet tab names in almost the full-width of the display after opening the sheet. As far as I recall this spacing remained static, and there was no attempt by the box left of the Information Area to hijack the space. Perhaps there was no such box? Now when I open a sheet I seem to get a fairly normal sized Information Area, an empty box to the left of the IA taking up about 2/3 of the display width, and a small area to the left of that with just a couple of the tab names shown. There is a handle left of the empty box which allows me to minimise its width and display more tab names. Fine, but then while I'm working this rogue box once again widens and closes down the tab names so that I have to keep going through the process of reducing the box width. Am I the only one suffering from this infuriating behaviour or is it an aggravation to others also? Am I missing something obvious which would allow me to control this rude box? What is the box for? Can I dispense with it? Help, please. -- Chris Dunn _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
