Increase Length of Actions Dropdown Menu

Why does this menu need to be so tiny? Limited to only 10 items. There's enough space even on my modest 1080p monitor for it to display 5 times that amount (or much more if it had multiple columns) so I would be able to see all my actions. Instead I have to use the search pretty much every time.

This applies to the materials dropdown as well, maybe others.

I agree, on a 1080p it is acceptable, but on 4k monitor, it is something bad we can't drag the menu to see more items at the same time.

* @yoann softyoda * I've never even used a monitor higher than 1080p and it still seems absurd to me. I think it must be a holdover from the days of 800x600.

* @chuppy44 * Ha, I already feel clostrophobiac in a 1080p screen, i could not live with 800x600, i personally have 2M of screen (2x32" and 1x38"wide screen that are all 4K, i like to have lot of screen to read and avoid all actions that need to open hidden menu and hidden featuresthat need lot of wasted click.)

Yes, make them at least drag-able in size.

Fully agree. Between the needlessly limited item count and the bizarre scrolling behaviour, these menus are just unpleasant to interact with.
