The closest I find is a "Configure columns to show" and it doesn't give me an option to set column widths. (Later) The initial size of the "Configure columns for 'Default'" window is too small to show the "Set column widths" section of the window. It also causes the buttons at the bottom to overlay other parts of the window. I can also resize the window to push the buttons over the last checkbox label. > 2.

Did you > scroll down, maybe it's simply hidden? I am using the non-debug version of the latest Win32 build (2002-04-28). In the "Edit" -> "Preferences" -> "Compose" tab, I see "Use signature separator", a blank line, "Configure XFace" (with nothing else on that line), a blank line, and "Font to use". I see the same with either "Novice" or "Advanced" mode in the "Identiy" tab "User level" field. I _think_ I used to see a file name entry text field on the "Configure XFace" line. I don't use the feature, so it's hard to be sure. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
