Lightroom Classic: Alt-drag on Windows doesn't expand Library panels like Opt-drag on Mac
On Mac, holding Opt while dragging a panel divider lets you expand the panel as wide as you want. But Alt-drag doesn't work on Windows 10 / LR 7. (I recall that this used to work in Windows, but that could be a false memory.)
Expanding the panels extra wide can be very helpful to see deep hierarchies and long names with folders, collections, and keywords.

My new desktop with updated Windows-10 Home (10.0.16299) Nvidia GTX1050: does NOT allow the expansion of the left panels while holding the [Alt] key.
My Dell XPS13 laptop with updated Windows-10 (10.0.16299) Intel Graphics 540: DOES allow the 'very wide' expansion of the left panels while holding the [Alt] key.
I cannot explain the difference.

Change 800 to whatever you want. See here for how to edit TranslatedStrings.txt:
