Description jon 2003-05-20 23:21:53 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1a)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:          Linux

Currently when you have a plethora of bookmarks in konqueror, the list of bookmarks wraps to multiple columns which are all screen high.  This also has the effect of putting the add/edit/manage entries potentially at the top of the screen, rather than below the 'bookmarks' menu entry.

I think that it would be better to navigate large bookmark lists with a scrollable dropdown, like the one that phoenix (firebird now, i guess) does for bookmarks.

Or limit the height of the menu to something like the height from the bottom of the screen to the bottom of the 'bookmarks' menu entry.  or something so that it doesn't move the add/edit/manage entries out from where they're expected to appear, which is directly under the 'bookmarks' menu entry.

this is really a qt bug, for a simple but not fully working 
workaround the following can be added to your .kstylerc:  
in the section [Settings] add this line: 
	ScrollablePopupMenus=true 
i'll probably add a gui option for this for 3.2 
thanks,
