All Programs / Left Pane menu width too small

Posted: 09-19-2006, 11:37 PM
With the "All Programs" now appearing inside the left pane of the start menu,
and not cascading as in XP, I am finding that the text on some of the entries
are too wide for the allowable space.

For example, I have just installed Visual Studio 2005 SDK v3.
It installed ( didn't get chance to change it during install ) under All
Programs | Visual Studio SDK | 2006.09. By the time you have navigated to
the final menu entry, 5 of the 9 entries are truncated by the view.

Even if you type "visual" in the search entry at the bottom, 4 or the about
5 are still to0 wide.

Can I change the width of the left pane, or revert back to cascading menus,
with XP start menu style. Changing the start menu to "Classic" in the
properties reverts back to pre-XP menu style ( single column ).
