In the sqltags browser, I can’t adjust the tag column width. This becomes painful when working on a small screen with long tag names.

That is because the column automatically grows and shrinks. You shouldn’t have to expand it.

I want to shrink the name column so I can see the value column without moving expanding the SQLTag window.  
Expanding the window causes the drawing area to shrink.

The real answer may be a bigger monitor. But when I am on the customer site, they don’t always have dual 24" displays.

Sorry - the way that tree/table is put together makes resizing the tree part of it quite difficult.
