Outline partly hidden #8

Closed Torsten-K closed 6 years ago

Torsten-K commented 6 years ago

When I switch to View -> Show Preview and View -> Show Outline, the Outline bar on the left is partly hidden by the editor area. I have a Full HD monitor (1920 by 1080 pixels).

Caret Beta 4.0.0.rc18 on Xubuntu 18.04 64-bit

astoilkov commented 6 years ago

We will fix that. Thanks for reporting.

Torsten-K commented 6 years ago

I just noticed that It has been fixed in rc19. Thanks!

astoilkov commented 6 years ago

Hmm, strange. We didn't fix that in the latest update. Are you sure?

Torsten-K commented 6 years ago

Strange, in deed. But I found out the following:

While I opened this issue, I worked on my PC, which I use for private purposes. While I closed the issue, I worked on my first PC which I use for business purposes (home office), where the sidebar did not hide the content of the editor. – The point is: On the privately used computer, I had changed the line width in the preferences of Caret from 56 to 76 characters. That was a bit too much – 72 as maximum works in my case. The possible width seems to depend on the screen solution (but I am not sure), maybe also on certain system preferences.

So, the question is: Is it really a bug? Anyway, could it be possible to program the sidebar in a way that it does not hide the content? Or could it be folded and unfolded? Just an idea …

astoilkov commented 6 years ago

Yes. This is indeed a bug we will fix in the next release. The sidebar shouldn't hide the content.

astoilkov commented 6 years ago

We fixed this and released a new version of Caret.

Closing this issue. Thanks for all the information provided.

Wow, that’s a fast bugfix, thanks! I tested rc20, and I can confirm that everything’s fine now. And I am glad my informations were helpful.
