Compact View

[meteorquake]

It would be handy if there was a "compact" view toggle (shortcuttable!) similar to what some other programs have whereby the menu, tabs, statusbar disappear but reappear when you use the Alt button. Ideally the window titlebar could disappear too, maybe a command whose parameters determine what disappears (including even the search bar). The View menu could perhaps have a stock version or a simple dialog where you tick what should be hidden. This would maximise the real estate given over to results, which becomes critical when the window is small because you are tiling it with numerous other things.

The Windows size can be set quickly from the View menu -> Window Size
Here is the default keyboard shortcuts for Window Size:
Alt + 1 == 512 pixels high.
Alt + 2 == 640 pixels high.
Alt + 2 == 768 pixels high.
These heights can be adjusted under Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> auto_size_*



To create a keyboard shortcut to toggle a compact view:

• In Everything, from the Bookmarks menu, click Add to bookmarks...
• Change the Name to:
  Toggle Compact
• Change the Search to:
  

  Code: Select all

  /window_caption=window_border?0:1;tabs_high=window_border?-1:0;menu=window_border?0:1;status_bar_visible=window_border?0:1;window_border=window_border?0:1
  

• Set a keyboard shortcut. (For example: F11)
• Click OK.

That's pretty decent! The only thing it doesn't do is hide the search bar but it's a big improvement, and particularly means I can zoom the GUI font without a penalty from the other gui elements changing, as GUI zooms for me only want to impact results or folder list (not together) and nothing else
