See response to poc about why this doesn't work for me. > (The position of the ULHC, > but not the size, is preserved. Sounds like you already have a way > to get the size you want, so maybe 1+1=2 here.) To get the sizes you want set as default: 1) size the Evo window and all the panels exactly as you want them. 2) In a terminal (gTerminal), open gconf-editor. 3) /apps => evolution => shell => view_defaults and evolution => mail => display click on the size keys and right click for menu; select default. That sets the default size for whenever Evolution is first opened. The mandatory option makes changing the size for whatever reason impossible after opening. Default leaves you a bit of flexibility. 4) Close; if you are not returned to user; exit in gTerm. >From then on, Evolution should always open with the default sizes you have chosen. Hope that helps. -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.2 Evo.2.22.2, Emacs 22.2.1 _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
