Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Nathan Gray (n8gray) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Windows menu truncated when lots of files are open Initial Comment: (Reported by Offer Kaye on discuss@) Opening a large number of files in one NEdit session can cause trouble with the Windows menu. The menu can grow taller than the screen, leaving some items inaccessible. Furthermore, when such a menu is detached, the height of the resulting window is limited to the height of the screen. The window can't be resized and there are no scrollbars, so it's not clear if the truncated menu items are missing or just inaccessible. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Thorsten Haude (yooden) Date: 2008-01-04 17:15 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=119143 Originator: NO It can be a huge nuisance, but there's a workaround, so let's postpone it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thorsten Haude (yooden) Date: 2006-09-18 22:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=119143 I would rather like a menu with two extra entries on top/bottom of the list which would scroll up/down. Is that what you meant by "scrollable menu"? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tony Balinski (ajbj) Date: 2006-09-18 19:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=618141 Maybe just turn the window list into a separate dialog (like that of the Replace dialog's "Replace all in [Multiple Files]") beyond a certain limit. Alternatively, provide a scrollable menu... that would be cool. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thorsten Haude (yooden) Date: 2006-09-17 17:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=119143 - Add a new setting nedit.windowMenuCutoff - Add a new submenu every time this value is reached. At the same time, remove one of the non-submenu entries. - If you reach the setting^2 (around 3600 on my system), stop adding any more entries.
