1. What actually happened or you saw:
Most of the windows of Comodo v8 (and before) use way too much vertical space for desktop (mouse+keyboard) use. It takes up too much screen real-estate.

The impact on viewing rules and logs is the worst.
2. What you wanted to happen or see:
I’d like to have an option - or maybe the whole theme - which would enable more efficient use of screen, like in version 5, for example.

3. Why you think it is desirable:
The overall trend in expanding UI to accommodate fat-finger-use makes no sense if the application is used on a mouse+keyboard interface. Moreover, this makes it hard for viewing logs (and rules) efficiently, as you need a lot of scrolling to go through it.
Also, the columns arrangement is not remembered between sessions (so you have to resize some of them every time you open the view in order to view complete information). In addition to that, CTRL and + or - keys combination for automatic column resize/fit doesn’t work anymore.
4. Any other information:
The world will be a better place if this becomes available again.
