Eudora Tip #218/07-April-2004
The magic shrinking tabs
Last week I explained how to combine the windows into one “tabbed” window by dragging the Tab from one window into another. And yes, I checked Eudora 5 under OS 9. There are Tabs available and you can combine (and separate) windows by dragging the tabs.
With Mac OS X and Eudora 6.1b4 (and maybe older versions) Eudora gets smart about the size of your window.
Open that combined window and make it extremely narrow. Then make it wider. Then open it out to as wide as it can go.
You should notice that the tabs, and the icons at the bottom of the window, change as you go. At its narrowest the tabs shrink down to be simply icons. At middle size text appears, but at a small size. At its widest you have large text and icons.
Smart, eh!
The screenshots show this in action. Click on the screenshot above to see an animation of the changes.
