- S1RE - 07-03-2003
My screen resolution is 1280x1024 and I have a My Computer menu the same as My Computer in the Start Menu and a Programs menu which has grown so large the menu is scrolling up and down I'd like to set a max height for the menu and then let it pop up in 2 columns, is this possible and if so how?
Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, you can do it manually, but not automatically. Maybe Yuri can add this?

Well I've been trying to force the list to be 10 shortcuts high and expand over however many columns needed, If you know how this can be achieved manually mind sharing ?

Well, in experimenting, I believe I found an ideal solution for you. First, set the max menu height. To do this, Right click TLB, select "TLB Settings...", and click "Metrics" in the left-hand pane. In the right-hand pane that comes up, there's an option for max menu height at the top right. You can change this number to any value between 200 and your screen's Y resolution (1024 in your case). When you are done, click "OK". Next, you need to tell your menu to use two columns. To do this, right click inside the menu you want to cange, and select "Customize Menu...". Make sure "Options" is highlighted in the left hand pane, and you should see a blank labeled "Columns:" in the upper right of the right hand pane. Change this value to 2 and hit "OK". It would be a good idea to refresh TLB at this point (right click on TLB, then "Refresh").
If done correctly, your menu will be a single column untill it grows taller than the value you set for max menu height, at which point it will split into 2. If your menu is taller than double the max menu height, you can scroll through, but personally I don't like the way the scroll works in multiple columns. Hope this helps.
