Thank you for your positive reply.
I love this script from bottom of my heart.

Hi, masato

Well, I noticed it yesterday and I'm working for fixing it.
Please wait couple of weeks.

 
masato User

from today this script has not worked well, mail part is wired up.
this phenomenon appears not only in Mac but also in Windows.
i'm using Fx3.

Has anyone else noticed a problem that this script clears the text of pending Drafts? It only happens to me when the script is enabled. If I disable & reload gmail, the draft text is there again. Strange...

I love your script! It works wonderfully, thanks for all this effort.

Very nice, I like how the delete button and friends stay locked at the top. One issue I've run into, though, is that when you open a message, the keyboard focus is on the left column. I occasionally use only the keyboard to navigate, and it's a hassle to try to tab my way over to the message so I can hit the space bar to scroll the message. (I have a lot of labels on the left.) Is there some way you could force focus to the message?

Thanks, reid

Update: I actually tried to implement this myself, despite knowing very little about javascript, etc. As you can imagine, I couldn't get it to work. I tried calling focus() on various elements, faking a click on the convDiv... nada. Hopefully you'll have better luck!

This script is very useful, but there's a compatibility issue with the GMailSidePaneWidth script: (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/15741). It would be nice if it could be fixed.

 
masato User

I greatly appreciate for your work and impressively fast update!

I had fixed it just now.

 
Dieguti User

Page is loading continously and it creates more and more triangle buttons.
Could you fix it?

 
Flakess User

How to get rid off horizontal scroll bar with right column, where the chat is.

 
hsrstud User

Great, thanks!

Now, I fixed the script so that it works on Gmail's new internal design.

 
hsrstud User

Unfortunately, this scrip isn't working for me again. When I try to open Gmail, I can't get past the loading screen. Thanks for updating this script when Gmail changes things on their end.

 
hsrstud User

Is there a way to make the top part of Gmail appear automatically? Currently, this script appears to close the top part when Gmail is loaded, and requires the user to click on the arrow button show the top part. I prefer to see the top of the page, because I use the multi-logon script, which sits at the top of the page.

Thanks!

Hi Malonic,

Header and footer handles work as might be expected.

The lehft hand pane doesn't 'fix' when you scroll through a larger male, contactslist etc.

Hi, Jan R.
Ok, I see. So there are three things I want to ask.

1. Is there a handle to open/close the top-pane?
2. Is there a handle to open/close the footer-pane?
3. Is left-pane still unfixed now?

 
Jan R User

Sorru malonic, I've must been sitting backwards while posting my previous message. It should have been LEFT hand pane (Inbox ...chat....label)

 
maloninc Script's Author

Well, probably I'm misreading what right-pane is.
Is this what you say as "right-pane"?

I loaded up 0.9.6 and the right pane is still moveable.

 
maloninc Script's Author

Hi,Jan R.
What about this(v0.9.6)?

 
Jan R User

Hi,

looking a little bit further into 0.95 I notice that the 'top part' of this version is working as whised for but the right side pane isn't fixed anymore and that is what gave this nice script it's name :-)

So a little more work to do maloninc.

 
Jan R User

I've done some testing and the problems with the latest greasemonkey version seemed to have disappeared.

Thnx Malonic
