Status: Open
Resolution: None
Priority: 5

Summary: SciTE, File-> recent files need to be cropped to width.

Initial Comment:
when you drag&drop or open a file from another app
sent to SciTE to edit, the recent files get too wide
when you click the File menu. unless you have
SciTE open wide enough, you only see the left side
of the menu, the right side is outside the screen area!
I usually run 1024x768 and around half the screen 
width.
another funny thing, after this happens, if I close
then reopen, it seems to have a better chance
of making the whole menu visible, even at half width.
I know there is no good solution. maybe dots in the 
middle?
with an option for max.recent.width= default of 40.
depending on screen resolution and default fonts etc.
it's especially noticeable when you edit from Internet 
Explorer
they won't show up in recent file till after you 
close. then you get:
c:\windows\temporary internet files\content.IE5
\KZLUPDR\whatever[1].ext

needless to say, the disappearing menu won't happen 
every time.
not sure if you sometimes have to exit & restart to 
get the problem.
that's some bug. exit & restart can also makes the 
problem go away!

it's just too wide of a menu bug or not.
too bad you can't have tooltips in menu items.
similar is too wide in the Buffers menu, 
not sure if the Buffer menu disappears too.
display of buffer numbers on the tabs seems redundant.
thanks
