panel sizing in editor

rjwse@aol.com · 07-08-2021, 09:07 AM

calibre editor has lost ability to resize width of all panels (contents, preview, file browser, etc) whether embedded or floating. I have tried reinstallation of calibre, rebooting Ubuntu, reloading kernel, using keyboard shortcuts to load/exit panels, resizing editor. Anyone else have this problem? Best regards, pop

I don't have any problem adjusting panel sizes but these sizes no longer "stick" between editing sessions.

When this was raised with Kovid some time ago I have a vague memory that he said it was a problem in the current version of Qt that calibre is using. I keep hoping that the problem will just "go away" in the fullness of time but no such luck so far.
