Anyway to Permanently Widen the Draw Panel???

Is there any way to permanently widen the Draw tools panel when in sketchmode? I have SO much space on my ribbon and this tool always opens with hidden elements that I then must scroll to find. There's a resizable tool in the lower right corner- sure would be nice if, after resizing it, the tool was persistently wider to show all the tool options on two rows of icons.

 

I guess I'm hoping there's something in a registry entry, or in some ini file that must control this?

Yes, I mean that box. You can even see that in your screen capture, there are hidden icons that you can choose, but to pick them you have to first scroll to them with the scroll buttons. LOOK how much space you have on your ribbon! There's absolutely NO good reason to have to use a scroll button to get to these other icons choices.

But every tool is already shown in that box.  Even if I click on the expand arrow there are nothing more.  What do you on your side?

Well,  here's an example. The two images show a before and after clicking the scroll window. You'll see they are NOT the same tool options, one has some hidden tools that you must scroll to reveal.

 

You can see that, while editing floors, the pick line and pick wall tool options are hidden unless I use the scroll button to enlarge the tool panel.

I always have 5 columns of tool instead of 4 like yours so I see everything.  What is your screen resolution and display scaling?

Asus PA329Q monitor with a native 3840 x 2160 resolution.

Text, apps and other items for scale setting is currently set to 175%.

 

Update: If I change my display scaling to 150% I now have five columns of tools and they all show. Seems like this should be fixed to allow for greater accessibility for those "old eyes" like mine that could benefit from the ability in Windows to provide greater accessibility by using the display scaling. Of course, my icons and tools and menus and apps are all now a bit smaller and more difficult to read. Universal Access and Equity is a difficult thing for software to achieve, I guess.

Try 150% or less see what happens.

If things look small you may want to reduce the screen resolution down a notch.

I'm accepting your reply as a solution, but I must confess it's not a GREAT solution! Ideally this component of the interface should resize the width of the tool, based on the display scaling as well. I guess it's the best I can currently do at this point and I'll just have to get use to the smaller icons and tools.

Revit have not been great with Hi-Res screen plus the UI is not as customizable as something like AutoCAD's workspace.  Your comment is valid so you can submit an idea to the Ideas board (link in my signature).
