[Request]: Full-width cards in timelines, a'la 0.3.x about tuba HOT 7 CLOSED

You probably want to change these two to something like 800

Keep in mind that you are reaching an unsupported territory. Styles, widgets and layouts have been made for the default values and Tuba might not look quite right. You can edit it without recompiling Tuba by using gresource extract and glib-compile-resources but likewise, no further support will be given and it might get overwritten or break future Tuba releases.

The reason this has happened is likely because the sidebar has gotten narrower, which has made the content view so wide that it goes out of the full-width mode. This has most likely changed once again in the most recent release, 0.5.0. I imagine the only potential solution to this is to adjust the point at which the app enters/exits the full-width mode.

Is there a way to adjust that breakpoint? Is it something set by Tuba, or something inherited from GTK/libadwaita/whatever-is-responsible?

If it is set by Tuba, would it be possible to make it configurable? I'm happy to try my hands at implementing that, but would need a pointer to where to start looking for it in the first place.

This breakpoint is managed by Tuba. If it’s a problem, it should be solved by default, for everyone. It’s not worth spending a preference on.

Awesome, then it's easier to fix! I think it would make sense to have full-width toots when the Tuba window half-width (or smaller), and start doing the card-like stuff when it is bigger? That would certainly work for me. It might not for screens wider than mine (I'm at 1920x1080), which is why I thought it might make sense to make it a preference.

To be honest, I'd be fine with having it stay the way it is, as long as I can override the breakpoint somehow, without recompiling Tuba.

In the meantime, where is it in Tuba? I'd like to patch it for myself quickly, until a proper solution is found. O:)

Thank you! I understand it's unsupported territory, and I'm fine with that. Now that I know where to look, and what to change, I can keep my changes updated if need be.

As far as I'm concerned, this resolves my issue, so you can close it if this isn't something you want to change. I'm happy with the workaround, even if it's unsupported territory.

I just upgraded to Tuba 0.5.0, and this issue is no longer present at the sizes I use Tuba at.
