multiple columns in menu

  • multiple columns in menu

    • I searched for "column" and "columns" but wasn't able to find a tip or tutorial to create a multiple (3) column layout that fits my installed extensions into the Extend menu using Mission Control. Suggestions?

      Other than that, wonderful! :D

    • There's already a toggle to enable 2 columns for the "Extend" menu. Feel free to dig into that and you'll see that it wouldn't take much more to support 3 columns.

    • Dig into that, sure, but what file sets the # of columns? Sorry to be dense, but I looked into menu.css and didn't see column width there. :(

    • It's really simple to find this stuff if you use the web developer tools that come with Chrome or Safari, or install Firebug for Firefox:

    • I do use those tools - but I'm (still!) not quite adept at them.

      Thanks for pointing me in the right direction; I had to play around awhile to adjust both the width (to ul.level2{width:640px} ) and the percentage (ul.level2 li{width:33.3%}) so that it would help accomodate the extensions while retaining hover access to the level3 items. :shock:

      Learning by doing. Thanks,
