Mac Folders Question

[Happy Now]

I think I know what you mean. Meg is brilliant and probably has a better solution, but in a pinch, perhaps try this:

Increase the size of the thumbnails using the slider in the bottom right hand corner
Then, View -> Arrange By -> Name and all of the thumbnails will fit within the width of your window and you just have to scroll up and down to see your alpha, embellishments, etc. (rather than also left to right).

Is that what you mean? I think the settings are saved for that particular folder (that is, if you come back to it), but I have to do that for any new folder that I come to...

HTH!

I don't have a slider in the right hand corner of my open folder. I have to go to "choose view options" and that's where I increase the size of my thumbnails, but then it also makes my folder window all slidy and then I not only have to scroll up and down (which is no big deal), but then I have to slide left and right to see everything - this is what I want to avoid.
