- 5.1.0.3550
- The selector looks to be hard coded to 7 items
- Any chance we can make it resizeable and remember its size. This would help greatly when you have 30+ columns in a table and have to scroll each time to find the column required.

Very, very cosmetic in my eyes, and not a great help as the scrollbar needs to be used in both cases if it's 7 rows high or 15.

Hi Anse,

If the size was configurable smile I would be setting mine to 50 (as I have the vertical space). That way in many cases I only need to click once to make my selection).

So the scrollbar is only required in extreme cases. Consider the scenario where the box is 7 high we have a click to open it, 4 clicks to get to the last item. In my 50 item scenario its 2 clicks (one to open and one to select) which is a 3 click saving ie more than 75% saving from a user perspective.

Well, probably you're right. Somehow still cosmetic but also usability related. Please file a bug report for this one. See "Issue tracker" link at the top menu.
