Autosize size column

Post by xanthareel »

Autosize the size column setting is not working. My size columns are still very big when the sizes are very small (in screenshot).

The effect of "Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Columns | Always autosize the Size column" kicks in when you change the tab or location within the tab.

I tried changing locations in the tab and changing tabs but it didn't work. I recorded a video of it, but it seems like I can't upload it, so I guess all I can do is say it didn't work.

Can you give the necessary steps (your configuration changes starting from a fresh virgin instance) to reproduce it?

I think I changed a few things:
-enabling folder size
-enabling item count
-disabling view system files and folders
-disabling view protected OS files

Is there a way I can share a configuration file? There might be more settings I changed but don't remember.

Send your XYplorer.ini to the support mail.

Got your INI file, thanks!

Autosize of the size column works as it should. I assume it's because you have Show Folder Sizes enabled that there's a longer delay before it kicks in, since it only does so *after* all the folder sizes in the current list have been calculated. Or you have not scrolled down to see that some folder sizes require the column width you see.

I disabled folder size and count but size is still showing up and it's not autosizing, potentially because of that. And I closed and reopened XYPlorer, why is it still there?

Wrong size setting

Configuration | General | Tree and List | List | Always show folder sizes
