The "list" and "image preview" parts of the Image tab of the Page Info dialog
should be seperated not by a fixed seperator but by a movable one to accommodate
large lists/small images or vice versa.

Is there a "grabby" thing on your divider like there is on the sidebar? There is
none on mine.
I was just able to get mine to move, but I had to put the mouse over the single
correct pixel to get the bi-directional arrow to move it.
This is much more difficult to move than something like the panes in the 3-pane
mail view.

no, there isn't an obvious grippy --however, if you mouseover the division btwn
columns, the pointer should to a 2-headed arrow which indicates that you can
resize that divider.

Ok, then I am seeing the "correct" behavior but I'd argue that the grippy ought
to be there. Like I said, I have to be *extremely* careful and good with the
mouse to get this to work. There is no way I could do this with the touchpad on
my laptop.
Maybe there is something that's especially difficult about this control under linux?
Maybe we could re-open the bug and change the summary?

hi Eric: actually, it looks the same on win32 and mac. :(
i think the problem is that resizeable columns don't have visually obvious
grippies. this is also the case in the thread view of the mailnews 3pane window,
as well as the bookmarks and history windows.
blake/mpt, is there another bug [perhaps in UI design?] which addresses the
appearance of column dividers wrt resizeability? my hunch is that this is
already by design --since this is the way it is in communicator 4.x [eg, the
mailnews window under linux]...

I'm not talking about the columns. Those are fine. This bug is about the two
vertically stacked panes and how moving the divider is very difficult.
For the record, I think the lack of a grippy on the columns is fine. No UI I've
seen gives a visual indication they are resizable.

I'm using classic.
With modern, this seperator is active for several pixels as I move in 'y', so
you are right it works much better.
In classic, its only active for one pixel in y as far as I can tell.
Is the issue that people think it doesn't make sense to use the same element
used for the sidebar/browser content seperator since eliminating the image
preview area makes no sense? I would tend to disagree with that.
I don't recall encountering this particular type of seperator anywhere else.

It's a skin thing, not page info. We'll have to find out who to assign it to.
I'm sure Sairuh knows, or has a list or something.
