Adjust Start menu height

Hi, is there a way to decrease the Start Menu's height with Start11? Currently mine is showing more content than I want it to -

 

 

I looked around a bunch and couldn't a way to decrease the height of the Start11 Start menu, how can we resize it?

You can open the start menu and adjust the size by grabbing the top or right side of the menu with the mouse

It is capped at a certain height unfortunately, unless the Dev has a reg edit up their sleeve. You can give yourself a little wiggle room by adjusting the font which also makes the whole start menu shorter and thinner.

The only way I know to hide that group would be to set your icon size to large or medium with a couple of blank groups to create extra spacing.

Thanks for the feedback PhoenixRising1, great ideas!

I will leave feedback, this is disappointing. An interesting case!

  • More granular control of tile sizing & spacing (pixels option?)
  • Adjustable menu height

Hi @TPScroggins, this frustrates me every single time I open the Start Menu now. Why was it designed this way? This is unexpected

Can we please have the ability to decrease the Start Menu's height as described above?

It has a minimum height as otherwise the search function would become frustrating to use as you would be forced to scroll to see more than a few results.

We have made a change for an upcoming build to allow the height to be smaller.  Obviously this will compromise Search slightly if you do make it smaller.

You could also move those tiles at the bottom to a new page. In 1.25 you can now use the scroll wheel to scroll through pages. If you make the start menu height smaller to hide those tiles, you will still have to scroll down to see them. Either way you are going to have to scroll. For me, scrolling to the next page(s) is my preference.
