Wider screen with nodelets off

I have all nodelets off. However, I still lose 20% of my screen to an empty column that says nothing but "you have this off".

Is it possible (likely?) to remove this, so that turning off nodelets actually removes this column completely? People on smaller screens or who, like myself, browse with a narrow window could use the space.

Perhaps someone can tell us how many monks have nodelets off -- that might indiciate if it is worth making a change.

On a related note, I was also a little surprised to also find that other things that you "turn off", like the monk pic or the quip, are still in the layout as well.

Maybe change your CSS? `td.main_content { width: 100% }` [download] Though more CSS classifiers would be desirable there - ideally to add something like `td.nodelets { display: none }` [download] The following might work instead. `table[width="98%"] td[width="20%"] { display: none }` [download] Makeshifts last the longest.

Ahhh... great idea, I didn't think to try CSS. Setting the main_content width to 100% works, insomuch as it makes the right column as narrow as possible. I had no luck getting a hold of the other column, either through the above example, or I also tried: `td.main_content + td { display: none; }` Perhaps, as you suggest, a much simpler solution would simply be to add a class attribute for that column, rather than removing it completely from the html. </ajdelore>	[reply] [d/l]

The optionbar would be a good idea for easy flip-flop of the desired version at the moment instead of going to user-settings all the time. There is an option for you. You can use 'print' from the parent node which will turn of all the nodelets off in that view. artist	[reply]
