Toolbar List Boxes Too Narrow to Display List Items |
Q106106
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows, version 6.0
SYMPTOMS
Sometimes the width of a list box on a toolbar in Word for Windows is too narrow to display a long name. For example, on the Formatting toolbar, the Font list box may truncate the following long font names so they all appear as "Garamond Classic Extras":
Garamand Classic Extras Light
Garamand Classic Extras Book
Garamand Classic Extras
WORKAROUND
You can modify the width of the list boxes on any of the toolbars using the following instructions:
- From the Tools menu, choose Customize.
- Select the Toolbars tab. This tab activates a toolbar modification mode for all the visible toolbars.
- Click the toolbar list box you want to resize to select it. A dotted line appears around it. For example, to resize the font list box on the Formatting toolbar, select it by clicking it once.
Note: Click the actual toolbar in Word, outside the Tools Customize dialog box.
- Point to the right edge of the list box. When the pointer changes to a double vertical bar, two headed arrow, drag the list box to resize it.
- In the Tools Customize dialog box, choose the Close button.
