I can confirm this bug. Ubuntu 13.10 kernel 3.11.0-15-generic, GNOME nautilus 3.8.2.
I can shrink my colums as I like but there is a maximum size so very long column entries (e.g. long filenames) can never be displayed fully. It is very unnerving and a change for the worse from the old behavior. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205055 Title: Impossible to change column width of Nautilus in list view Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Gnome Nautilus 3.8.2 under kernel 3.8.0-26-generic (64-bit), using the mouse to change column width is unavailing. It's as if these widths are hard coded. This seems to be a reversion, since the problem has been reported by various people ever since 2007. Now, 6 years later, the bug remains unswatted. This sort of thing is an embarrassment to Ubuntu. Can something be done?
