            Bug ID: 366839
           Summary: "Automatic column widths" should align columns to the
                    left, at least when window is maximized
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: view-engine: details mode
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: caip...@fastmail.fm

Setting Dolphin to set column widths automatically just moves all but the first
column to the right edge of the window and resizes the first column to fit the
whole rest of the screen. When the Dolphin window is maximized, this means that
the first column is huge, and you need to move your eyes a lot to see the other
file properties.

A better behavior would be to just resize each column width to match the
largest row in them, so that all columns will be aligned to the left and be
comfortable to read.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Maximize Dolphin on a widescreen monitor
2. Open a folder with many files and change the view mode to "details"
3. Let Dolphin set column widths automatically by right-clicking on the title
of a column

Actual Results:  
The first column is huge, and the other columns are at the other edge of the
screen, making it hard to scan the lines with your eyes.

Expected Results:  
All columns should be automatically resized to match the largest item in them
and be aligned to the left.

Dolphin 16.04.3
KDE Neon 5.7
