Concerning the ticket, I think people should just resize their window :)
I tend to disagree with this last assertion, because the size of the
buffer view changes depending on what panels are open, and also because
margins affect readability and comfort too.
One goal of this blunt assertion was to make people who disagree
disagree, so that we know what we are tlking about :)
"The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a
question, it is to post the wrong answer"... :)
Does this mean that the "limit text width" feature of full text handling
should apply to normal mode too? That would be trivial.
That would be one of the desired features that we could regroup in the
preferences under a new "readability" tab (maybe together with the
screen fonts selection), in addition to a minimal width for the margin,
a selection of line spacing (which should be different from the LaTeX
output as discussed recently), and the choice of displaying
justification on screen or not (which should be moved from a
per-document setting to a per-user setting as discussed recently).
However, I do not know whether this should be expressed in pixels or in
ems (zoom-dependent). Also I tested it and it's good to see that it
interacted well with horizontal scrolling as I hoped.
Note that when one opens a panel, the text moves anyway, which is not
really comfortable.
This is a separate issue, less important to me.
In this case detaching the panels is probably the
best bet (mac-like opration).
So maybe detached panels are more convenient in Mac than in Ubuntu...
Personally I would love to be able to set margins and the line spacing
as I see it fit like I can do on my kindle
(<http://img1.digitalversus.com/test/74/7439/feature-design__V385943044_.jpg>),
possibly with a maximum line width.
Yes it is sexy, but it is only useful once or twice. Or are you
constantly changing sizes?
No, I agree, I am only thinking of new choices in the preferences dialog.
