[8.0b17 x32] Dir name in tab header not always left-aligned

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

[8.0b17 x32] Dir name in tab header not always left-aligned

Post by *Hacker »

Hi all,
For some reason it seems that the directory name in the tab header is centered instead of left-aligned if the directory name contains an & (ampersand) character. Best visible if you have narrow tab headers. Try for instance the following directory names:

Code: Select all

aaa bbb ccc ddd eee
Tab header shows "aaa bbb".

Code: Select all

aaa bbb ccc ddd eee&
Tab header shows "b ccc dd".

Code: Select all

&aaa bbb ccc ddd eee
Tab header shows "bb ccc d".

Expected: Show the directory name from the beginning, so "aaa bbb".

Sorry, tab headers are drawn by Windows, I have no influence on it.

Christian, all,
Hmm, true. Can you / anyone at least confirm?

Confirmed in Win7 x64. However this is a "feature" of Windows. I first heard about it maybe 5 years ago.
Windows 10 Pro x64, Windows 11 Pro x64
