[Autosize]: Change Maximum width of Name column

Post by binocular222 »

When Autosize is ON, Name column is adjusted to accomodate long file name. However there's a maximum width of Name column.
There should be some tweak to increase that max width.
Reason: There' no point to see elipsis when I have a wide screen and a lot of free space

There is a tweak for this. You could do this:
AutosizeColumnsMaxWidth=1000

Thanks for pointing it out. It really helps those with larger screens.

FTR,

Code: Select all

v10.10.0106 - 2011-08-24 14:20
    * List Column Widths: Changed the logic like this:
      - BEFORE: All column widths were limited to a max of 1024 pixels. 
        You could not make them any wider by any means.
      - NOW: On manual setting the column widths have no max limit; auto-
        sizing columns is limited to 600 pixels.
    + Tweak: Customize the max width for autosized columns in pixels.
        AutosizeColumnsMaxWidth=666
      The factory default (when you don't use the tweak) is 600.
666 the beast :twisted:
