Autosize lister columns

Help & Support
1

I've done a search for information but cannot find anything.

What I want to do is set the column sizes to automatically adjust themselves to the correct width in the lister window. I'm sure this is possible but I cannot find it in 'preferences'.

Could someone help please?

You can create a button to it with this command:

Set AUTOSIZECOLUMNS

Or you can do it with either folder formats or folder styles.

Preferences/folders/folder formats

Preferences/layout/lister styles

In either of the latter two, look for "Auto-size columns in Details and Power modes". That option is located on the Display tab of the folder format or style you are editing. In styles you have to look a little harder as that setting is part of the format/edit section in the left/right file display sections near the bottom of the dialog.

Thanks very much - boy it's so hard to find the setting!

Maybe someone at DOpus could find a way to make the setting more easily accessible?

also you can set it from right mouse button context menu: view/folder options/display
