I know several other apps use the horizontal scrollbar, but I do think that not using one gives Rhythmbox a more elegant feel. Not having to scroll, and being able to see everything easily at once is nice. It just looks more polished. At the same time, I understand it is a restriction, because you might want to be able to see all the columns at once, and Rhythmbox just doesn't let you. What do other people think? I am open to opinions here. > 1) Like I said before, with as many as 9 columns visible, no scrolling > makes most of the columns unreadable. Right, well, one answer to that might be to cut down on the number of columns. > 2) The column resizing with the rb-tree-view looks really bad.

I'm not totally convinced yet it's worse than having a scrollbar though. > 3) Using the standard widget keeps RB hackers from having to maintain > their own subclass of gtk-tree-view. Right now this isn't so much of an issue. > 4) the resizing thing again, just to be sure no one missed it. :) > I was going to attach screenshots, but right now RB is crashing whenever > I import anything.... sorry. Yeah, known bug in GStreamer: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135672 (This is what's holding up the Rhythmbox 0.7.1 release).
