The preview window height automatically fills the whole side.

Resize your Everything window to adjust the height of the preview pane.

The preview pane does not stretch the preview image, the preview image aspect ratio is maintained.

To change the preview window background color:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Fonts and colors tab on the left.
  • Change Item to: Preview
  • Click the button to the right of Background color.
  • Choose a new color and click OK.
  • Click OK.

I hope 25% or 50% of preview window height.

There's no option to adjust the height of just one sidebar pane.

Show the folders sidebar or filters sidebar. (View -> Folders/Filters/Bookmarks)
Drag the folders/filters/bookmarks sidebar from the pane caption to the same side as your preview pane.
Resize the divider between the folders/filters/bookmarks sidebar and the preview pane.

I tested OK.

But it is not good solution.
I do not need the folders sidebar or filters sidebar.

Thank you.
