1. Type column does auto-size on changing the extension over here. :?
Tried the latest beta (was using build .0006 before) and it's the same score: Type column doesn't become wider. I can repro this in any folder, so nothing special like before with ConvertXtoDVD. Can anyone else try to repro this please?

So why can't this automatic, too-quick-for-your-eyes-to-see rebrowse be applied when invoking "Copy List Settings from Other Pane"? Once they're copied you can't uncopy them, so they'll be applied either way.

Yes, happens here too with a fresh 0007 -- column Type does not autosize. So (when column Type says "EXTENSION File") renaming foo.dat to foo.datdatdatdatdatdatBAR does not make that column lager - although both Name & Ext get autosized - but a simple refresh (F5) fixes this. Then, renaming back to foo.dat doesn't make the Type column any smaller either, and again a refresh is needed to fix it.

Ah yes, with AR off I can reproduce it. Fix comes...

NO!!

AutoRefresh is ON, it is the default setting. The only setting changed is AutoSize Columns.

Size, Modified Date & Type do NOT AutoSize. Only Name.

This is on a machine that I have never used before and has never had XY installed on it.

Found one more bug that's related to columns not automatically resizing.

To reproduce:
1. Get latest NoInstall beta. Unpack and run it, go to some folder in Program Files.
2. View -> List Style. Make sure "Autosize Columns" is ticked.
3. Now click on Computer at the top of the tree. Columns there do not appear to have been resized (see screen below).

Is that a bug or is Computer branch of the tree an exception to List Style settings?

List Styles are listmode-wise. Computer is another list mode: needs to check autosize individually.

Got it, not a bug then. How many list modes are there in total?

So no news about "Synchronized Pane Settings" setting? I'd like to see it and use all the time to keep my panes in sync.
