Thanks. I wish that all general three-pane message reader apps (mail, news, feed-reader, etc) were as flexible with their layout as pan is, as after trying all sorts of things, this layout is definitely preferred here. Unfortunately, not all tri-pane message apps have that level of flexibility, and pan has spoiled me. =:^) > The layout you mentioned is so much better.

Years ago I definitely agreed and was quite frustrated, and I still agree intellectually/in-theory. However, in practice, I think I've used pan for so long and become so used to this quirk, that at least with the layout change described previously, it no longer bothers me. <sheepish> In fact I'm slightly bothered by the fact that my emotional gut reaction was to shout irrationally IT'S A FEATURE, NOT A BUG, even if rationally I agree with you and know that I too found it frustrating, until I got used to it. I suspect I might even find some reason to be frustrated with proper window-width wrapping, these days, if only because it's not the way I'm used to pan working. </sheepish> Anyway, glad you found the layout suggestion useful, but fair warning that you too might suddenly find yourself frustrated with the lack of layout flexibility of similar tri-pane apps, now. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
