[...] AJAXの話を別としても、Windows Explorerのツリー型のUIが本当に適切なのかどうか、ちょっと疑問を感じてしまいます。例えば Windows XPとWindows Vistaの比較をしたこのウェブページは、ツリー構造� �深くなってしまったとき、いかに訳が分からなくなるかを良く示していると思います。ツリー構造の場� ��は、常にルートの階層が表示されてしまい、しか� �以前に開けたノードが開きっ放しになります。結果としてもう不要になってしまった情報が画面のスペ� ��スを多く取ってしまい、閲覧性を損ないます。 [...]

I, along with my colleagues, also find this a terribly annoying feature since we use laptops with limited screen space. And no, I’m not complaining for the sake of it, my dislike is genuine. The first thing I do when setting up any new computer is to disable slowing features like smooth scrolling, and this dynamic horizontal scrolling falls into that category.

I appreciate that some people like these features. Good for them. I’m not suggesting that MS removes dynamic scrolling, just that they provide an option to disable it. That way everyone can be happy.

Having said that. Has a solution been found yet?

This feature is still in Windows 7 RC, or are you using a leaked copy of the final version of Windows 7?
I also wish to see it removed.

Well, this is no longer present in Windows 7.

I sometimes miss it.

this is one of the most annoying features ever pushed down our throats by microsoft. it really gets in my way when using list view in folders having a large number of files. when i select a file with a longer filename, it is really irritating to have the image run to the left.

but I do like it. They need to make it more responsive and faster though.

Jesus. Why all the hate for this awesome feature? I think most of you are just complaining just for the sake of complaining. No way does this feature get in the way of the work flow.

I hate it. Making Dynamic Scrolling optional would have been the “Vista” thing to do.

I find that enlarging the navigation pane (tree view) eliminates Vista’s guesswork on which way to scroll. Same way in XP — by expanding your navigation pane, you do away with the need for the horizontal scroll bar.

Aside from that, Vista is the biggest pile of bloatware ever made.
