Resize Model\Category drop down window depend on text length

Model names can be very long and they do not fit in Model drop down window. Now there is no resize ability. No scrolling.

Additionally, to close this drop down window you need to push again button Model\Category. This is very annoy, it's better to close this window if you press left mouse button in any free space in view

    Just noticing that the 'i' tab on the model tree does not have scrolling like the tree tab does, so suffers the same issue

    Agree with the first point, in our model the names will always be longer than the window, so this tool won't be used. Model tree works fine as an alternative though, as recommended. The same thing is also a issue in Microstation element selection tool and level filtering, which means the function doesn't get as used much as it would as the levels aren't readable.

    Main goal for user is to faster close Model\Category window as it works for any other buttons. Select empty space and Model\Category window close automatically.

    Hi Andrey,

    We would recommend that you utilize the Model Tree component on the right side of the screen which should allow you to see the entire model/element names.

    Is this efficient for you? Or is there a concern with viewing in this widget?
