Adjustable columns in the messages pane

[euptech]

I am unsure if anyone has attempted this yet or not.. I am going to see if I can work on it. The subject,from,date,size columns seem to be fixed sizes and it would be great to be able to adjust them. Also, right now when you are viewing all of the messages in the list and you click on the sender it will open up the compose window... this is a great feature but unfortunately I need it to just open up the message. does anyone know where the code is that controls this?

Many thanks in advance!

can anyone just point me in the right direction of where the code is to either of these things? I will gladly suss out the rest....

Hello.
 I was looking into this as well. Before going any further, I was wondering if
you had any success/progress with this. I currently can't live without being
able to adjust these columns. Anyway, I'd love to hear about anything
you might have already done in this area. If not, I'll pursue creating a grid
library which will make the columns dynamic. That way, the user can
resize/adjust the widths of the columns at will while viewing the message
list.

Thank you for all your time and consideration.

I havent found anything on this... I manually adjusted them with the css... I would be interested in seeing what you come up with.

Can you tell me what changes you made to the css code to adjust these column widths? I want the subject column to be a fixed width. Thanks!

In the mail.css under the /skins/default/ directory you can adust the width of the following:


#messagelist tr td.icon

#messagelist tr td.subject

#messagelist tr td.size
 
#messagelist tr td.from

#messagelist tr td.to
 
#messagelist tr td.date

I change the auto sized to the siz I wanted.....

Hope this helps!

I think that an easy, drag-able resize bar between the folders and message list would be awesome...highly useful for those of us with big widescreens and long folder names.
