Sync column settings across all tabs

[4rF3tk]

When I change the column settings in one tab, such as column width, column position, or adding a column, I want to automatically apply these changes to all other tabs, Is there any setting that can achieve this?

[void]

No.

Each tab has its own column settings.

No.

Each tab has its own column settings.

Thank you for your response!

Will this feature be considered in the future?

By default (I believe), newly created Windows will carry over the "properties" (columns, widths...) of the Window/Tab from which it was opened.

So in that respect, you can kind of do something like that for newly created Windows.


Session.backup.json does contain those types of settings, so maybe you could manually or semi-automatedly <sp> hack that file & achieve what you want. (You'd have to do this with Everything closed, & then restore that session backup upon opening Everything.)

Good idea with modifying your sessions.json therube.

I will make a small change to Help -> Troubleshooting Information in the next update:
The listed config in the Troubleshooting Information will contain the current columns.
(currently it contains the last closed window values)

You can copy the columns= line and paste it in a new tab, prefix with a

/

and press ENTER.

For example:

/columns=[{"name":"Name","width":410},{"name":"Path","width":315},{"name":"Size","width":82},{"name":"Date Modified","width":93}]

I will consider an UI option to sync columns.
Thank you for the suggestion.

Or right-click a tab and select Duplicate Tab (and clear the search query if applicable).

(BTW: I misread Close Tab as Clone Tab. Took me a couple of seconds ..)
