Description Georg Schwarz 2023-03-26 15:20:50 UTC
SUMMARY

The width of the rightmost's column in a folder's (e.g. Inbox's) message list remain at/reverts to a fixed default value.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open any folder's message list
2. try to resize the width of the rightmost column, or move another colum to the very right to make it the rightmost

OBSERVED RESULT

When trying to rezise the rightmost column, you can only move horizonally its left border. This however results in rezising of the second lefotmost colum's width only and an expansion of the overall (virtual) width of the message list (when moving it to the right).
When moving a column to the right to make it the rightmost, changing the order of the colums, that colum's width springs to some fixed default value and forgets about its previously set width.

EXPECTED RESULT

Being able to resize the width of the rightmost column; at the very least retaining the width of an item when being moved to the rightmost position.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Majaro Linux with XFCE

Resize cursor at right edge of rightmost column

If you are talking about the Detailed view, then you can change the column width. Its right edge is just not visible.
Comment 2 Georg Schwarz 2023-03-30 18:35:20 UTC
You are right. What distracted me is the fact that when shrinking the rightmost column by moving its right boundary to the left the header field's width keep expanding back to the window's right edge.  Therefore it is not visible that the column's width is being reduced although it is.
That's why I am closing this issue as "not a bug".
