[Bug 94014] Re: In list view, the name column's size is not remembered
Unbelievable that this bug is still open. There is a patch for Nautilus 3. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410361#c29 http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=192024 Any chance someone can patch that into the current one ?

Re: [Bug 94014] Re: In list view, the name column's size is not remembered
Hi David, while it may be too complex to fix this as a papercut, a quick win would be just to double the width of this column and that surely can't be THAT hard? This is an extremely annoying bug, if for instance you're browsing through a dir filled with files with similar names, such as TV episodes or log files. I know that almost everytime I open a new nautilus window (or worse a new tab) I have to resize this column because I can't tell which file is which. While it would be better to fix it properly, I can see from earlier comments on the ticket that this is a more complex issue than it appears to the user, but I think most people would be happy with the quick win. Hope this helps, Matt Quoting David Siegel david.sie...@canonical.com: This is too complex to be considered a paper cut. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Invalid ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Milestone: round-4 = None -- In list view, the name column's size is not remembered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94014 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Invalid Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in ânautilusâ package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in ânautilusâ package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: nautilus This affects list view in non-browser mode, probably used by a large percentage of Ubuntu users, and is quickly annoying. Since bug #89031 was fixed (List views start with too-narrow name column), the name column size seems to be hard-coded, and usually not large enough. Resizing the name column does not result in the new column width being used when reopening the folder, as should normally happen with spatial nautilus. Furthermore, the name column width does not increase when increasing the size of the window, as used to happen. -- In list view, the name column's size is not remembered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 94014] Re: In list view, the name column's size is not remembered
For those of you suffering with this issue, one work-around is to only display the columns you really care about. For me, that is Name, Size, and Date Modified. (go to View-Visible Columns and shut off anything you don't need.) -- In list view, the name column's size is not remembered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 94014] Re: In list view, the name column's size is not remembered
I hope you guys are able to fix this as a papercut (even if you just increase the default width of the column) everytime I open a new nautilus window I have to resize the column, it's become second nature, but still annoying. It's the very definition of a papercut. -- In list view, the name column's size is not remembered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
