Thanks for the report. To get that same situation for me, I have to decrease the window size so much that I only have space for 40 characters on a line (or about 50 if I disable the minimap and line-numbers). Is that the same for you? The current logic for switching layout is if the tool-view is higher than it is wide. Do you have an idea of how to change the layout-change logic so that it would work both on the side and on the bottom?

I see what you're saying. If i make the toolview larger/higher, it switches. This is a workaround that works for me. As for an idea, i have none, just that the field might need some minimum size. But i am no developer by any stretch, so i have no idea how that would be implemented. Sorry
OK, thanks! If the workaround is good enough, I can close this. A minimum size could be added, but then we would need a minimum size for the height to, as the vertical layout is quite much higher... If you get an idea, just make a new report :) /Kåre
