Lane_3	Posted Mar 24, 2016 in: Column widths and going back & forth between laptop and desktop Score: 0 Lane_3 Posted: Mar 24, 2016 Score: 0 When I resize the columns in TD on my laptop my desktop inherits the change and vice versa. Most inheriting is nice, but this particular inheriting is a bit of a problem, as one ends up in a tug-of-war in which each time one switches back and forth one has to either change the settings, or leave with a right-left scroll bar, or live with only a small part of the task name showing (which case holds depends on whether one has just moved from laptop to desktop or vice versa).

Using TD on both a laptop and a desktop must be common, and so my guess is there by now are good ways to avoid having to keep changing things, i.e., to be able to use the width of the desktop screen to see lots of each task's title while on the laptop not ending up with columns going way off the screen and requiring left-right scrolling.
