601: tree display issue (fonts)

[therealjd]

i'm using the same font and size in the tree as in the file pane. However, the tree clips the fonts where the file manager does not. I use lots of "_" and it appears to be missing in the tree panel. Could the display be spaced out and not clip the fonts like it does in the file/folder viewer? Also, i LOVE the large icons in details mode for the file/folder pane. Could we have a large icon mode for the tree as well? that might also resolve the clipped font issue.

Thanks!

Well, here it looks good:

When i look at your picture, i see that the font has not enough room! Increas the high of the line or use asmaller fontsize! You can see on the "p"'s that they are cuttet off... And the underscore propably als is yust not displayed because of missing space...

I'm using the same font size in the file pane as i am in the tree, and i like the ability to have a larger font used because of the high res setting on my monitor. So it looks fine in the file pane, why not in the tree pane?

you mentioned to increase the height of the line. How do you increase the height of the line? Where's the setting for that?

Maybe this helps:
Change the tree item height in freecommander .ini:

[Form]
TreeItemHeight=18

Thanks for the response. I haven't looked at the ini before.

I did find that setting there. I did change it also from the default 18, to 24, then 36, then 48 (each time i restarted FC) and the setting doesn't seem to change anything.

i've only tested this on XP pro sp3

I've tried this ini-entry with my configured FCXE: also no change.
I've tried it with a new portable FCXE with fresh freecommander.ini: the line high changes as described.

Maybe the setting it's not compatible with some other configurations.

Thanks for confirming the issue.

Based on your advice, i decided to try the portable version in my system.
On my XP system, with a fresh ini. The tree height still fails to change.

[Form]
TreeItemHeight=18

It is broken in the current release. Fixed for the release 602.

[therealjd]

Fixed in 609. however upgrading from 0.601 i had to do the following in the freecommander.ini to make it work.
i moved

Treeitemheight=24

to line 36 of the ini file. (default for new ini file)
For some reason it was waaaay down the list in the ini file in my 601 version.

after moving it there, the changes were reflected after restarting the program.

Thanks Marek for the fix!
