    Default Scroll bar for drop-down panel

    I have a long list of blocks that I need to use. I have created a drop-down panel in my ribbon, but the list is longer than my computer screen and you cannot see half of the blocks (see attached). Is there anyway to toggle the scroll bar or even edit it down further? Thanks in advance.

    I would recommend duplicating that drop-down a number of times in your panel row. Then removing items which do not match the category for the drop-down. This would allow you to organize your block inserts into various drop-downs.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    While I'm a fan of the Ribbon, in this particular instance (dealing with the insertion of Blocks), I would recommend you use a Tool Palette instead - aside from being more user friendly, there are a lot of customization options built-in, that you'd have to duplicate work via custom code to replicate.

    ... Just my $0.02; please take from this what you like.

    Cheers
