CUI dropdown menu

Anonymous

Hi,

I use a lot of commands when creating a drop down menu. These commands cannot all fit on the screen.  I can't scroll to see other commands. How to solve the problem?

Don't put everything possible under one dropdown.  Use the available tools:

  • Group them logically into multiple dropdowns
  • Make the closely related ones command-line options under a single command
  • Make the most common ones large, prominent buttons with few options, at the bottom of the panel
  • Make less common ones small buttons at the top of the panel
  • Put the less commonly used ones 'under the fold' so they are out of the way until needed
