Hi,
Using
set columns=1000 lines=1000
is a commonly used trick to maximize gvim's window. If I execute this
line twice:
set columns=1000 lines=1000
set columns=1000 lines=1000
the command line vanishes and vim behaves as if it actually had that
much space available.
Version: 7.2-330 vim-gnome, ubuntu 10.04.
Hm, yes, I see it also in 7.2.411 (owncompiled Huge +gui_gtk2
+gui_gnome). Clicking twice on the 2nd button from top right (Restore,
then Maximize) repairs the damage -- maybe something could be done at
the command-line but it's hard to use it when it's out of sight.
When maximized above the tasbar with menus, toolbar, text-style tabline,
and using my usual 'guifont' i.e. "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 8", my gvim
has lines=49 columns=143.
Maybe that behaviour is intentional, for the cases when the system (X11,
GTK2, whatever terminal Vim is running in in Console mode, ...) does not
report the number of lines & columns correctly.
BTW I have just recently started using the gnome version of gvim --
otherwise I mostly use the windows version. It seems to me that the
gnome version is rather sluggish in comparison and that the screen
gets updated more often. Is this a common observation?
Regards,
Tom
