Max Info Panel shows 2 list entries but Search shows only 1?

This is one of those where should it go (Bug -vs- Wish) topics...kinda also a curiousity...

Given that using Shift+F12 toggles IP from min to max: When on a normal tab, and going to max IP, there are still two detail lines showing in List area...but on Search Results tab, there is only one detail line showing.

Is this discrepancy intended or not? As having only one line visible (while making IP a bit larger) makes perusing the list while using IP a bit more difficult, IMHO.

Yes, I realize that using Alt+F12 would make it based on my last setting, but I tend to use the toolbar icon for Shift+F12 about 99% of time...

Not for me it doesn't - two lines are displayed regardless of tab. Is there a setting that you have and I don't that effects it (Font perhaps?).

However, there is something strange...

With Address bar and Toolbar displayed (neither of which I normally use) maximising the Info panel displays two lines. Removing the Address bar and Toolbar then displays four lines (well three and a half actually). Shift+F12, or dragging the divider, won't make the Info panel any higher. The panel needs to be closed and opened again before Shift+F12 will increase it's height and only two lines of the list are displayed.

Might be related, might be another bug.

I'm using 'Toolbar & Addr bar' : 'tabs' layout (the 3rd one)...I see what you mean about the 3 1/2 lines, which could still be a true bug...because...sometimes...I don't notice the obvious...

Like...the fact that I'm only seeing one line of detail on SR likely because... I have path column "on" and thus list is wide enough to require the horizontal scroll bar...which...blended into IP enough before that I didn't spot it...

DUH! It takes the space otherwise used for second detail line.

Ah yes, the horizontal scroll bar.

So, it would appear that what is required is to display a minimum of two lines in the list regardless of what else is displayed (scroll bar, address bar etc...).
