So I have definitely settled on Column View>Standard as my favourite view. The only downside is the preview of a PDF in the lower pane opens small, and I have to ‘Ctrl-Command-W’ every time to make it ‘Zoom to Width’ to see the content clearly.
Now, I know there are many ways to pop the PDF out using Quicklook, double clicking to view in DT’s viewer or viewing in Preview etc…
But as it’s Beta time can I put in a vote for the document to be in the bottom pane and full width. It seems to make more sense?..and there is an option for this for images in preferences.
I am Jim but here’s the thing…I looked exactly where you said before I posted and that option is not there. ( Preferences > Media > PDF Display : Automatically Resize )
And double clicking, as I say in my post, is what I was looking to avoid…totally aware I can do that as an option.
Also when using the Help menu, DT3 Help, I seem to search on the wrong terms to find the info I need…something I’m adjusting to. I don’t have time to read the whole manual but I am reading Take Control Of book.
A series of long in-depth videos for DT3 would be gratefully received here for us visual learners. In the meantime I will RTFM when I can!
Thanks for the help…I totally appreciate the support.

Now on beta3 and have selected that option but the issue I’m having remains…the first screen shot is how a pdf looks in column view/standard and the second is after Zoom to Width…which is how jpegs/tiffs and other images behave automatically.
The option in preferences did not change things.
