  • Using 'full screen' more

    From Mewcenary@21:1/189 to All on Monday, February 07, 2022 07:25:05
    Hi,

    Mystic uses the 'full screen' of a larger terminal window pretty well in some cases, but not all. For example: It would be GREAT if it could use it when browsing Message Areas and Message Lists, for example.

    Is it possible to make it do this?

    Thanks,

    Mewcenary.

    Not sure, but I switched to one column for the file area and message area listings to be able to see the complete names (descriptions) of the areas.

    (File Base Settings --> List Columns:1 and Message Base Settings --> List Columns: 1.)

    Best regards

    Oh neat, Zip... I either hadn't seen this option or... whatever - but I, too, struggle at times w/ Base Names and might check into this to see how it looks on 2o.

    I have shortened some Base Names and would prefer it not being necessary. Guess I can head over to yer board to see it in action. :P

    I'm really after Mystic (for these sorts of things) using the vertical screen estate better as well, when it is available.

    Something for the future?
