Is anyone able to give me an in-depth tutorial on how to create a plug-in that increases the default size of the search folder viewer, so that it shows the entire file name when the user logs in? First screenshot is what is it, second screenshot is what i want it to be.

the width is set in Layout.css, you could overwrite it in your plugin
.ecmCenterPane .leadingPane,
.ecmCenterPane .paneNoOverflow,
.ecmCenterPane .docInfoPane {
**width: 190px;**
margin: 0;
}
Hey HongLin Gao, I'm completely new tho this ICN thing and so i still don't know how to even make a plugin. Could you help me or give me some helpful links so i can give it a try.
Thank you
Dear kingsleyxlam, please read the IBM RedBook, you have a example step by step how to set IbmContentNavigator plugin creator to your eclipse environment,create new plugin, and how to load it to your ICN
Sorry one more question. Why is a plugin required? is it bad style to just change the original Layout.css file?
Sure, you could change it on original CSS file.
Dear HongLin Guo , I just try it because some curiosity and it work, Can you tell me please if there is some method to find specific element CSS involved classes, as you did in this case? (if i press inspect element debugger mode i just get the main CSS class with few prop)
