I searched for "column" and "width" no wonder I didn't find this bug. In any case, I agree with sonique's 2007 comment. This is really annoying :-)

Looks like my bug 689543 was duped here. Has there been any progress on this issue over the last couple of years?

I'm still seeing the same problematic behavior on 2.98.

Hi,
This is an annoying problem that have been being reported among all bug-tools and forum related to Rhythmbox, but just GET IGNORED by developers.

I am now at Rhythmbox V3.2.1, from Fedora 22 repository, and the behaviour of list columns hasn't still been improved.

At the actual status, at restart, column widths just come to be "all the same".

Sorting of column order ISN'T (anyhow) a feature as well.

Really boring...

Thou we must be happy, that AT LEAST we can choose the columns shown.


So development, PLEASE come to this so nicely seem improvement.
Your users will be really PLEASED of getting this from you.

Many thanks and regards,
Careca

hmm - is this even possible in Gtk?  I don't see a treeview column resizing signal in the api documentation.
Comment 10 careca 2016-01-18 18:26:30 UTC
if there is no API for table handling, than one must do it.

But, in the case of Rhythmbox, just remember the column widths by closing, and by re-start re-sizing them back...

This may not be a big problem for one that wrote a such good application.
Comment 11 foss.freedom 2016-01-18 21:40:37 UTC
two methods after further research - can use the notify::width signal on Gtk.TreeViewColumn - or alternatively the size-allocate signal from the inherited Gtk.Widget class.

Hopefully this will help an enterprising coder to create a patch.

I might actually look to implement this in my out-of-tree plugin alternative-toolbar at some point ...
Comment 12 Robert Orzanna 2016-08-06 07:56:24 UTC
Dear all, 

I would like to add myself to the list of requester of this feature. 

I am frequent user of the Podcast section and particularly here it is very important for me to keep the Title column at a large enough width to be able to make sense of an episode and read its title. 

Currently, the Title column is being shortened in favour of the Feed name column which is far less important, in my opinion [1]. 

Thankfully,

~Robert
