automatic Column reszing

Post by Lerb »

Hi everyone,

No matter what settings I use in the Colors and Styles > Styles > Columns area the Name column will not resize to the longest name in the list like Explorer does in Windows. Any ideas? Thanks.

Can you show a screenshot of the whole window when auto-size is not happening? And how did you get there, by selecting a new folder or by tab switch?

This happens when I open XYplorer. I don't use tabs. I treat this like Windows Explorer. Here's what I see when I open the program. Notice how the Name column is fixed way bigger than it needs to be. I run this program in the simplest mode possible. Thanks.

Untick this: Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles | Columns | Autofit the width of the Name column
