> If there's still enough room to show everything without a horizontal scrollbar, then we're still good. No, resizing a view so that it becomes taller than wide shouldn't make it behave as if it's become very narrow all of a sudden. Similarly, a very narrow view isn't always taller than it's high (you could have a very small file side-bar in a dolphin window, for instance). I've uploaded a new version which has what I think is probably the best and easiest option. > It is a very significant real-life issue for vertical sidebars Yes, of course, I didn't realise those use the same widget.
