Font size in file titles

DenS · 03-08-2023, 01:02 PM

In Classic mode settings there is an option "Shrink item font size to fit more text". However, this option is only available in Classic mode. Any chance to also add in Detailed List mode? This would be very useful in books that have the title name very long, so that it has the same font size as the other files.

Currently the font size is decreased automatically step by step until the full title fits the space available.
Do you need a setting to disable this feature in the Detailed list mode?

Yes

So the title will be truncated and you will not see it in full.

A quick and long press pops up the full file name.

Is there a way to make the title names consistent, with the same font size?

hius07 · 03-09-2023, 11:46 AM

There is no user setting for that yet.

Sorry for taking your time, but is there any chance this setting will be available in a future update? I am referring to an option in the Detailed List mode to not display the full name of the title when it reaches a certain amount of characters. Thus, the font size of the titles and possibly the authors would not vary in size.

The consensus is currently "hell no", unless you can actually provide a sensible reasoning for it

.

On the upside, you can probably mangle it into submission via a user patch

My apologies if at any point it felt like I was being rude. English is not my native language.
I was able to get a good result by changing the screen dpi and the title and author font size in the listmenu. Names now have consistent sizes without making the text truncated.

It's a good alternative, I'll see what I can do.

Appologies, I'd forgotten @poire-z's final assessment of that in the message I linked to. This might be extremely non-trivial
