Bible Search View Persistent Column Width

Post by therapon »

The default width of the Bible/Book column in Bible Search View is too narrow - it truncates the verse reference as in the screenshot. I can adjust the width by dragging the divider over and be able to see the complete reference. Is it possible to make the adjusted column width persistent? It's a pain in the neck to have to change for every search.

Can anyone else repeat this? Mine appears to adjust to the window width.
Is this high dpi issue? or scaling. The fonts seem larger and bolder than I have.

110 dpi, running in WINE on Linux. 96 dpi makes the menu text, etc. too small to read comfortably. That is also true for other Windows programs.

If I make the window bigger, the columns get wider, smaller and they get narrower. The minimum width for the Bible/Book column seems to be 1 or 2 characters. It's really flaky how it works. If I widen the window, all the columns get wider. If I narrow the window, they all get smaller; then if I widen it again, the column widths are no longer in the same proportions - the Bible/Book column is proportionally wider in relation to the verse text column. When I run another search with the window still open, the column widths return to their "default" proportions.

The program remembers window position and size, remembering column width as well would fix it for me.
