impossible to maximize each part of dockge

[miltuss]

Dockge is divided into three horizontal windows: The list of stacks, container management and the docker-compose editor.

This organization drastically reduces the width of each window, which is not ergonomic at all. In addition, it is impossible to enlarge one of these windows to have a clearer display of one of the parts. With Dockge we are currently forced to work with a screen divided into three parts.

It would be so much better if it was possible to enlarge each part to work on it better.

This would be really cool! I use the compose log output in dockge quiet often but if I am using a fairly small screen, the compose.yml-Preview should minimize in order to make more room for the output.

I like this too

First time trying out dockge, with hopes of replacing vscode server as my main means of editing docker-compose.yml files. Even on high res monitor having the 1/3rd of page for actual editor means that a large number of single lines from docker-compose files span multiple lines: virtually every of the traefik labels spans four lines.

I'd love to see the layout re-arranged, or ability to dynamically re-arrange/resize components. For example, left most column with list of docker containers could be scaled down to the length of the longest name: as it stands, it's wider, and feels like it's a lot of wasted space that could be used towards the editor.

Cheers!

I just installed and setup Dockge, great tool tbf, but i came here to post this exact suggestion.

At least for the yaml text editor, a maximize button would be a game changer.

Another solution would be to put the yaml editor in the bottom and give it a full width.

@miltuss I would also appreciate this feature but this is a free product developed as a hobby. You are free to submit a pull request with the required changes but having this kind of attitude will lead more open source developers to abandon their work.

[miltuss]

I completely understand that. But @louislam doesn't respect his community and never responds to messages, and doesn't accept PRs that have been hard-worked by contributors. I don't compare him to other OpenSource developers.
(I'm not the only one saying this)

@miltuss You can fork this project, merge PRs and be better than @louislam. Or you another solution...
This is personal project of @louislam so its his desision how many time is he spending on this project.

Tbf it's a free app, i actually thought about adding it myself but then i read the contribution guide and got discouraged immediately, because there's a very high chance the pr won't be accepted

[miltuss]

Yes, the main developer makes things complicated and never responds to messages. Contributions are not accepted and nothing changes!

This is not a definitive solution, but someone tweaked the CSS code with ublock origin in order to force wider panels. Be careful about changing DOCKGE_URL with your real instance address.

These settings can be forced one or another plugin able to hack websites CSS.

My requirement is the comment of the env file, which is not wide enough. With AI, I just ask him to rewrite it with 58 characters. The requirement is solved.

Ok. For your information, CSS changes give this 2 columns layout in any view:
