Re: My WDSC annoyances

You don't say which version you are complaining about.

With V7 the Remote System Details is better-behaved.  I use it to peruse PDF
files stored in my IFS directory.  However other plug-ins (like SoftLanding,
probably) can affect this view.  For example, Aldon LMi plug-in uses this
view and seems to be the cause of the same column-resizing problems you
report.

If you use the same subsets frequently, isn't that what filters are for?
Create filters, then right-click and use show-in-table.
