There is no way to configurate the *width of the columns*, when an account is displayed in the Ledgers. The _date_ is not totally visible and the FIGURES (in _DEBIT_, _CREDIT _and BALANCE_) are limited to five visible numbers (for exemple 215,38 instead on 10215,38). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open any file 2. Go to the Ledgers 3. Try to resize columns Actual Results: It is impossible the resize columns Expected Results: Resize of columns should be allowed
Did you try widening the KMyMoney window?

I assume you know that you can reposition the KMM window to allow stretching to the right? I'm not suggesting that this is a satisfactory solution, but may be a possible work-around. I did actually implement a change to allow column widening, but the current method was preferred by the developers. Just so we have the complete picture, would you give - The KMM version you are using - Your screen size - Whether repositioning is helpful. Perhaps you could attach a screen-shot?
Thanks for your answer. The solution that you propose don't correct the problem. Indeed _if to extend the window over the screen size is possible under Linux, it is impossible under Windows_, so it don't help all the users of KMyMoney. Furthermore when we extend the window size, *only the 'Details' column is extended*, but not the others, so the problem persists. For illustrate that, I send you screen shots taken under Windows with a computer whose screen size is 1600×800, but the example works also under Linux with a windows stretched to the right as long as we can want.

I don't recollect seeing that sort of behaviour recently. You didn't say what revision of KMM you use? It's some while since I dabbled in this area. Again looking for a work-around, if you add extra characters into one of your narrow columns, does that increase the column width?
My version for Linux is the 4.6.4 (KDE 4.14.2) and for Windows is the 4.7.2 (KDE 4.12.5). No, it's just the problem: adding extra characters into one narrow column don't increase the column width which is fixed I think in percent of the screen size independently of the window size.

I would strongly advise getting the latest release from the Claydoh ppa. Hopefully you don't see exactly the same behaviour on the Windows version? > No, it's just the problem: adding extra characters into one narrow column > don't increase the column width which is fixed I think in percent of the > screen size independently of the window size. I'm pretty certain this is not the case in the latest versions.
I do see the same behavior on the Windows version (4.7.2), as I yet said. So the problems persists.

If you want to use KMM on Linux, then will you upgrade? No development work will occur if the problem has already been fixed. I have just installed 4.7.2 again and checked this. All columns are fully displayed. On a wide screen, the Details column expands, but the other columns are still displayed correctly. An empty Number field starts off narrow, but expands to show the data in full. I don't think I can say more.
As I said you, on a screen size of 1600x800 with the version 4.7.2 IT DIDN'T FUNCTION CORRECTLY: the screen shots are taken with this version… Because, as I yet said, the column width depends of the screen size. And I don't know at all what you put the bug resolved when it's not!
What is sure is: under Windows, what the lastest version (4.7.2) it didn't work correctly: the columns are absolutely fixed, as the screenshot show.

I can only repeat that 4.7.2 works correctly for me. If it doesn't for you, I would look to your distro/whatever. I cannot help with a Windows problem as I gave up on that some years ago. I believe there have been build problems with the Widows version, but I understand that that issue is now resolved, but probably not yet distributed. > And I don't know at all what you put the bug resolved when it's not!
