Re: Fix the size of the name column in Folder Tree
Hello David, That is the point I am a big key board used and don't use the mouse. When I the cursor keys to move up and down the tree it gets really annoying that the other columns disappear off the right. The problem as I see it is that the first column width is not fixed but will vary depending on how far into a tree you are in. I don't know why that is happening to you. All I can actually say is that I don't see that behaviour here. As you can see in this screenshot: http://www.rancho-k.com/TB/Folder_tree.png my Name column doesn't change width no matter how deep I navigate in my folder tree. Sorry I can't be of further help. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

[Reply to: »MAU« · 2008-03-13 · 14:11 h (CET)] Moin, MAU! Have you tried Options | Preferences | Messages | Limit expansion of the first column to _ levels? No. but I have now. Just perfect. I knew it was somewhere but could not find it. You learn something everyday. I always thought (and believed) that setting was ONLY for the first column of the Message List Pane, and not for the folder tree pane. Hmmm, I justed tested and found out that this setting *only* effects the message list, the folder tree is untouched by this setting. This seems to be correct (aka WAD), because the setting is called Options|Preferences|Messages and not Options|Preferences|Columns. So, I really do not know, how this setting fixed David's problem.

My folder tree doesn't go that deep, so I only see that behaviour in the message list. Would viewing the folder *list* instead of *tree* work for you? (It doesn't for me because I have several different accounts, although having a different colour gruop for the folders of each account may work) -- Best regards, MFPA Ballerinas are always on their toes.

Re: Fix the size of the name column in Folder Tree
Hello David, How do I fix the size of the name column in Folder Tree. You can either place the mouse cursor on the line that divides the Name column and the one to its right and then drag this line to the desired size, or you can right click on column names (labels) and select width there. As I go up and down the folder tree it expands and I thought that I could switch this behaviour off I have actually never seen the behaviour you describe, I set my column widths years ago and they never change unless I do it as described above. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Yep I can do that, well both.

Have you tried moving the column order. I have put unread first and it looks weird with the tree having the unread numbers of unread.
