Results list 'File Preview' splitter location not remembered

Results list 'File Preview' splitter location not remembered.


In the Results Window...

Enable File Preview
(in my case, Results are displayed fullscreen, Results list is ~ the 1st. 1/3, & Preview takes final 2/3
[& actually Results list is ~ 1/3, Preview is ~1/3, & blank space [wasted in my case] is the final 1/3])

Drag the splitter such that the Results & Preview each share ~ 1/2 screen.

Close Results.

Re-scan.


On open, Results again are split ~ 1/3 1/3 1/3, rather then ~ 1/2 1/2

It appears this is not a regression, per se, compared to 4.5.48,
but it is different in that % of screen that Preview uses (compared to earlier versions)
[in the past, it looks like it used to default to 50%, 1/2 of screen]

As it is now, the Preview data almost assuredly will overlap some of the Results list column data,
so one is continually dragging the splitter (to the right) to uncover said data.

50% was better, IMO.


Better yet, would be for the splitter split location to be remembered.
