[SOLVED] Resizing columns in the Object Inspector
«
on:
August 19, 2020, 03:29:54 pm »
I've found that making the Object Inspector wider only increases the second (value) column width. I'm trying to make the column with the property value name wider (it's only a quarter of the Object Inspector's width) because I can't read the value names. It doesn't seem to be possible to drag the divider to the right.
Any ideas? (Are the column widths saved in a config text file or registry value that can be edited manually?)
Thanks.

Which widgetset? I can drag the divider perfectly to any position (Qt4).

It works a'right here too, Linux-gtk and Windows (XP/7/10). IIRC the settings are saved to
environmentoptions.xml
; look for
ObjectInspectorOptions
or somehitng like that.

Thanks for the hints. I'm running Lazarus 2.0.10 on Windows 10 but sorry, I have no idea about the widget set.
I've found the xml file but can't see a setting for individual column widths in ObjectInspectorOptions. All I have is the following and entering SplitterX="300" in place of what's below didn't seem to do anything.
Code: XML
[Select]
[+]
[-]
<ObjectInspectorOptions
ShowHints
=
"False"
InfoBoxHeight
=
"50"
>
<Version
Value
=
"3"
/>
<Bounds
>
<PropertyPage
SplitterX
=
"165"
/>
</Bounds
>
</ObjectInspectorOptions
>

I think I've found the source of the problem - an erratic mouse pointer when accessing the computer via VNC. On about my tenth attempt, the divider was "picked up" and I was able to move it. Thanks for your help.
