Group Spacing

Hello, Is there a way to move groups in the start menu in win11 mode closer together. 3 Groups on each page have enough space between them that I could fit a whole new group. I use medium icons, with no text and 90 percent text size for group names.

Thanks.

Ok, I see what's going on. There needs to be a setting that changes the spacing between groups when icon size changes are made. the spacing stays the same to support tiny all the way to absurd size. This creates a lot of dead real estate on the menu. I guess this is a now a start 11 feature suggestion .

Thanks

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. I believe you can resize the Start11 Win11 Start panel. You can drag it taller to fit more group in there or Wider. So I am not sure what limitation your are talking about. A screenshot would help us understand your issue better.

Thanks

Sorry, Resizing does not change the spacing between groups. Did not realize I could post an image. If I resize vertically it makes a bigger window, though the spacing stays the same.

Same here. My group are just too close together (vertically). How about a basic grid, so we can move the second row of groups to line up horizontally so their group titles are parallel.

Are you able to post a screenshot of your problem as the original thread was complaining about the groups being too far apart, but I think your complaint is they are too close together?

I think some optional features that improve further on the Windows tile UI would be welcomed.

My ideas are to first, allow spacing between groups, both horizontally and vertically.
Second, option divider bars, maybe with an opacity option, could further improve group focus.

Start 11 with optional group spacing and divider bars
