Nautilus 3.14 - Sidebar size

#1 Post by johnnycage »

Hi,

how can I change size of sidebar in Nautilus? Because after upgrade from 3.12 to 3.14 the fonts are bigger than before (see attachment). I tried a lot of themes and icons and without results. Thanks.

Open up dconf-editor and navigate to org.gnome.nautilus.window-state and change the "sidebar-width" to your desired value.

Thank you very much, but these instructions are for horizontal size and I'm looking for vertical size, see attachment .. first is nautilus 3.14 (spaces and font between items are higher) and second is 3.12 (spaces and font between items are lower)

I can't view that link (don't have a google account)...

I thought the sidebar just occupied the entire side of the window.

I'm new to GNOME so I'm not sure what else to suggest.

Nautilus's window's size is preserved. Thus you should only need to make the window "taller" to make the scrolling bar disappear from the side bar. Check the DConf entry org.gnome.nautilus.window-state.geometry.
