Hello Andrian,
Thanks for your response. I think you have given a solution to force how
many entries will be shown in the menu.
But I am also interested to resize the menu so that I can see the splash
image properly.
"viewport" command can do it. But i don't know why it is not there in 0.97.
Do you have any idea ?
thanks once again
